Six years after claiming his third world title, Van Gerwen has another chance to claim the biggest prize in professional darts. The runner-up in 2020 and 2023, ‘Mighty Mike’ is determined to get his hands on the Sid Waddell Trophy and has looked back to his very best at Ally Pally.
The Dutch ace was clinical in the semi-finals as he breezed past Chris Dobey, dropping just one set. Averaging 98.84 and hitting eight maximums, he will likely need to lift his level even further to overcome Littler.
The 17-year-old was the pre-tournament favorite after a spectacular debut year on the tour that saw him win a staggering 10 titles. After showing some nerves in the early rounds, he was sensational in his semi-final against Stephen Bunting, averaging 105.48 during his 6-1 demolition.
‘The Nuke’, who finished as the runner-up last year, will now look to make history and become the youngest winner of the tournament.
