Michael van Gerwen He told PDC to stop healing Luke Littler Like a child before the rematch of the World Championships on the Opening Night of 2025 Darts Premier League in Belfast.
Van Gerwen said Littler has appeared 45 minutes to the media and must learn to be there on time and not be accepted by these permissions.
“You mean 45 minutes late. They (PDC) must stop treating him like a child. He is no longer a child. Now he is 18, he must learn, “said Van Gerwen.
“You have to learn the hard way, it’s a professional sport, so you must be responsible for your activities, simple. If he appears late for an interview, I don’t mind, but now seven other people are waiting for him, so it’s not really nice. “

But when Luke Littler is now the taste of the month, “Nuke” gets Phil Taylor Comparisons and van Gerwen gathered them.
“To Phil Taylor? Come on guys. “
“Whatever he did, it’s great. That’s nice. You can’t compare it with [Gary] Anderson, [Phil] Taylor or I still. Of course, in 10 years we can have a different conversation, but not now. “
“Whatever they do, it is phenomenal. This is good for darts in general. But I think this receives the respect of Phil Taylors and all other guys. “
Also asked if he saw any difference of Littler playing for Taylor, he was honest in comparison. “No, that’s not. Phil [Taylor] He was a different kind of animal. “
He was also asked about playing at the age of 18 compared to 16 or 17 and it was disputed for Van Gerwen again.
“I don’t really care, they never treated me differently when I was 17 or 19. They still want to beat you. I don’t care who I play, men, woman, transgender. I am there to try to win the game.
“There is also a bit of a gap of age. He talks about FIFA, football. If I want to talk about the fact that Trump is a new president, he probably doesn’t watch the news. Everyone is different, different interests. It depends on people. “
