Michael van Gerwen announced himself on the look-out for decorations and produced at the moments to keep his World Grand Prix title.
Among Michael van Gerwens favorite things to say isdo the appropriate things at the right moment – and it was never more obvious than at week which saw him maintain his fifth Grand Prix title in eight years with a 5-2 victory over Dave Chisnall.
The world No 1 has, by his own admission, had other things on his mind. Together with baby Van Gerwen number 2 over the road, only the 12 names have been meant by a slightly scaled program six down.
It appears absurd given a 125th PDC title at senior level on Saturday, along with those numbers night, that several questioned the Dutchman.
He reacted when he needed to most deep to generate just a signature burst of genius or a leg , a 100 + end and responded in fashion. His delight was evident after lifting another trophy when talking.
Ive a major trophy cupboard and it is not full yet, he told The Darts Show podcast in the media room following a warm embrace with Chisnall.
I love everything I do and I wish to continue.
Make no mistake, MVG was analyzed this week, him stopped . Mervyn King compelled him to produce his among the best matches the Citywest point has observed, although Chris Dobey directed 2-1 at the sets of a defeat.
And Chisnall had been outscoring MVG at the bets, fitting him with a mean a colour beneath 95 and taking five of those seven sets to a fifth leg decider.
Michael has played consistently under stress within this event and that will please him Wayne Mardle told Sky Sports Darts.
A few months ago after the Matchplaythere was a proposal that Michael could have been somewhat flaky under stress, however there was not any flakiness this week and hes got over that span from the conclusion of the Premier League to now where he didnt perform greatly.
That has gone and hes being tested and he is acting under scrutiny – that is exactly what winners do.
Later, a rejuvenated Chizzy could return on an outstanding weeks job in a year which has kickstarted his career, but also for Van Gerwen that the attention was around the upcoming few months and also a run of championships that bring the biggest prizes in the game.
Sometimes I really dont understand – maybe I am just very good in the sport, he said with a mischievous smile after a chorus ofOh Happy Day.
Im quite happy as it is a difficult championship to win but everything has gone well this week. My direction, my wife, my buddies have been here too, everything has been there for me.
You always need top perform to 100 percent because if you give people a finger they will bit your hand
Dave played extremely nicely and had a phenomenal tournament, he had been in the final but I had to create something special I was able to, but there could only be one winner.
The Dutchman has his sights set on defeating Raymond van Barnevelds haul of five world titles, and at Alexandra Palace in December hell look to keep the Sid Waddell Trophy for the very first time, this week just as he did here.
To use his own words its a phenomenal standard, but again that can be Van Gerwen and if he plays well he wins, as he demonstrated in Ireland.
