"I doubt many people have gone completely back to their 2019 normal since."

I think the opposite. Not sure what Covid/lockdowns of 3 yrs ago has to do with it

It disrupted momentum and routines, changed people's habits and priorities.

MVG has refused to give interview for Dutch TV

His management has now confirmed that there is a personal issue. Hope nothing too serious.

Update: They are saying it's just a stomach ache

Beat me to it.

There's no real excuses for this. Quite frankly MVG is not the player he once was.

[Rogg]

Where would we be without the revelations offered in this thread?

Nobody is suggesting he was, but I would say it’s a certainty MVG wins more majors.

A gloomy thought indeed.

Well, I wasn't suggesting that. I just don't think he'll win anywhere near as many in a year as he did at his peak.

[shenmue]

Will win more majors but wouldn't be that shocked if he never won another world title, probably will but i wouldn't have even thought of posting that 5 years ago when he raped obesehead in the final.

Losing to the clown here might have mentally fucked him, he was his bitch for years. Losing to obesehead was another blow, 2 finals he expected to win.

How much longer does MvG go on for? He's 34 and has been playing high level darts for nearly 2 decades, not expecting him to retire imminently, but he's not going to be active at the same age as Taylor surely. Expect him to pick up at least 1 more, but whereas when he won his third, I'd have thought it was an inevitability that he'd surpass 5, now I'm not so sure

Graham Taylor once said of his Watford team that 'you don't get cramp at this club', Phil Taylor is probably sitting somewhere saying 'you don't get stomachache at the World Championship'

You do if you let nerves, pressure and anxiety overwhelm you.
