Gary Anderson's ability to take out the bigger scores told the tale of his victory over Michael van Gerwen, the Scot managing four maximums and 12 140-plus totals. "Mighty Mike," by contrast, only hit one maximum.

 

Despite taking the first leg, Van Gerwen quickly slumped to a 4-1 deficit, and there was no coming back as Anderson rode high on his wave of high three-dart averages, shown by PDC Results:

Sky Sports quotes "The Flying Scotsman" being appreciative of how lucky he was not to have ruined his own opportunities, however:

 

"I did my best to throw that away, the same scenario [as usual], I lost a couple of legs I shouldn't have but got there in the end. I'm not quite finished yet."

 

Van Gerwen's fortunes were summed up by the three aching wires he struck in the final leg, an advantage Anderson gripped with glee, finishing on double 8 to win their fixture 7-4.
