De Graaf reacts to dumping out reigning champion Suzuki: "I was confident, I know what I can do"

Aileen de Graaf threw a spanner into the works for those wanting Mikuru Suzuki to seal another World title with the Dutchwoman dumping out 'The Miracle' at the 2022 WDF Lakeside World Championship.

"I'm feeling really happy yeah. I was confident I know what I can do and if I had nerves and everything, it would be alright. It was good yeah," said De Graaf to Tungsten Tales.

"I didn't have any nerves, normally if I have a little bit of nerves, it's ok. I play better with nerves."

In doing so, De Graaf came from a set down and admitted she was angry with herself as to how she played.

"I was angry after the first set because I thought I had my chances, I can do better and everything and thank god I played better."

But next up is Beau Greaves and she is confident despite admitting it will be a tough clash.

"It will be a really tough game but I know if I play my best, I can win so you never know."
