Incredible, MVG is the Champion! What a performance, 115 average last night and now 108+ in the final. The guy is just phenomenal!
If anyone deserves to be a double world champion... It's Michael Van Gerwen.

On paper he had a easier draw yes..
but in reality his matches were probably tougher!
He had Reyes & Barney play the match of their lives against him.

Lucky
Don't be so ridiculous.
MvG says all the right things and speaks in the classy manner a champion should speak.
If only it was somehow possible to make a match-up between MvG and early 2000s Taylor.
MvG would win but I'd still like to see it.

Is Phil Taylor the only other darts player to will all the Darts majors and the World Championship in one year

Indeed
There ain't a bloke walking the earth who could have beat him this fortnight don't matter who he drew!Cristo Reyes, Barney and Ando all threw 100+ against him and none got within 2 sets.
Only thing he didn't win I think was the first BBC Champions League. Don't be surprised if he wins that later this year

MVG was scheduled to meet the number 32 seed in the last 32, he did and it was a great match
In the last 16 he was scheduled to meet the 16th seed but he was knocked out by Darren Webster
In the quarters he was scheduled to meet the 8th seed but he was knocked out by Mark Webster
In the semi finals he was scheduled to meet the 4th seed but he was knocked out by Barney
He was scheduled to meet - Reyes, Bunting, Suljovic and Taylor. He didn't do bad.
If you think winning the matches he did in the style he did was lucky then you don't watch much darts.

Reyes and Barneveld both got the highest average ever to lose a world championship match so he was certainly pushed. Gary Anderson averaged over 100 for the first time in a final too.
And anyway, MVG would have beaten anyone these last couple of days.

He only lost that because he was absolutely knackered when it was played.

Don't be silly?
Look how Reyes Webster and Barney played against him.
World Champion and World Number One, he is the best right now no question! Great final, Gary didnt play badly just was beaten by someone playing insane darts!
Nice interviews from both at the end.
I noticed Mvg, didnt wait for the end of the announcement before he moved for the trophy, wanted to make sure no one else nicked it!

Owen, I know you from a couple of different threads on this site but seriously that is possibly one of the most ridiculous things that you have ever posted. I'm not even a huge darts fan but seriously? On this year's form alone? What draw precisely do you think would have floored him...?
Anyway, well done that boy.
