And we can’t forget Michael Van Gerwen, the lone Dutch hope, taking on Callan Rydz. Do you think MVG can turn the tide for the Netherlands?
Martin: Van Gerwen is always capable of pulling something special out of the bag, but Rydz is a formidable opponent. He’s young, hungry, and plays with a fearless attitude. This could be the match where MVG really has to dig deep.
