Michael van Gerwen hits incredible nine-darter after fans spot he's made subtle change following struggles
MICHAEL VAN GERWEN hit a stunning nine-darter after eagle-eyed fans noticed a subtle change he has made. The Dutchman sent fans wild during his 6-1 demolition of Ryan Searle at the German Darts Grand Prix today. 3 Van Gerwen was cruising in the third round tie when he put the icing on the cake by landing the perfect leg. MVG struck seven treble 20s in a row before hitting the treble 19 and double 12 for the nine-darter. The ice cool three-time world champion calmly turned to supporters, outstretching his arms and then blowing them a kiss in celebration. Searle applauded and fist bumped his rival as beer was thrown by the raucous Munich crowd. Fans of Van Gerwen noticed that he is playing in his old shirt at today's Euro Tour event. He has stuck with the trademark green and black, but he has returned to the previous design that is different around the shoulders and back. Van Gerwen has also swapped darts as he picked up ones previously used that are reportedly lighter. The legend has been struggling for form this year and some reckon the minor changes could help the glory days return. One said: "Wearing your old shirt and using the old darts. Stick to what you know. Keep believing and fighting. We are behind you." Another added: "Are the old shirt and darts back for good?" Opera-singing referee dubbed 'German Eye Candy' steals show at European Darts Trophy 4 with amazing 180 call A third wrote: "Nine-darter as soon as he went back to his old shirt and darts." His shirt change comes after he injured himself trying on new ones. He was forced to pull out night nine of the Premier League in Berlin earlier this month due to a shoulder injury sustained while outfit swapping. His pal Vincent Van der Voort told the Darts Draait Door Podcast: 'He was trying on some shirts for his sponsor, and as soon as he put one on, he said something didn't feel right. He could barely move his neck. "He went to a physiotherapist, had a massage, even took muscle relaxants. He gave it a go, but it just wasn't happening. "During the warm-up, he still couldn't turn his head properly. That's when he knew it was over and he pulled out immediately. 'You could tell he was in serious pain. He was stiff, quiet—completely unlike him. Normally, he's the loudest guy in the room. 'But this time, he was just suffering. It was a complete disaster of a day.'
