Van Gerwen aims for missing trophy in Leicester: 'It's one on my bucket list'
Post TypeFriday, 18 October 2019 at 18:00
Michael van Gerwen has won all but one of the current majors in the PDC. Mighty Mike will get another chance this weekend to win the Champions League of Darts and complete his career slam.
The Dutchman came close in 2016, when he lost to Phil Taylor in the final. During the past two editions, Van Gerwen did not even reach the final at the Champions League of Darts. The world number one is determined to put things right in Leicester.
"I've never won this tournament before so it's an important tournament. It's one on my bucket list so I need to make sure I keep my focus," said Van Gerwen to pdc.tv.
"I'm very happy with how I played in the World Grand Prix and I was delighted to win that, and I want to keep that form going.
“I'm professional and I don't want to let myself down or my fans. I feel good, I'm a winner and I want to win every tournament that I play in.”

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
