World Cup of Darts too in the future without MVG?
The World Cup of Darts takes place annually in the main metropolis, it is the unofficial team of the darts, in which two players fight for their nation for their nation.
Van Gerwen has already won the competition for the Netherlands three times. Last year, Van Gerwen and Danny Nopt were eliminated in the round of 16 against Belgium, Luke Humphries and Michael Smith won the victory for England, for Martin Schindler and Gabriel Clemens was also in the round of 16.
MVG left open whether he will ever take part in the event again. “Maybe that’s an option for the future – but you never know what happens. Maybe I’ll never take part in the World Cup of Darts again.”
It was only on Monday that the Dutch superstar won his 38th title on the European Tour. At the German Darts Grand Prix, van Gerwen prevailed 8: 5 in the final against compatriot van Veen.
