00:00High-flying Michael van Gerwen has sent a word of warning to Luke Littler and his other
00:05darting rivals.
00:07The 35-year-old has been in scintillating form of late, clinching the Players' Championship
00:1221 in Wigan a week ago after averaging 107 against top seed Dave Chisnell.
00:18An 8-4 win over the Englishman gave MVG his first ranking title of the year, and the darting
00:24icon showed no signs of slowing down by winning the Hungarian darts trophy just days later.
00:30Van Gerwen faced compatriot Jan van Veen in the final in Budapest and got off to a rocky
00:36start in the best-of-15.
00:38A break of throw levelled the score before van Gerwen was ruthless in the competition's
00:42deciding leg.
00:44The Dutchman then gave a word of warning to his rivals, including darts prodigy Littler,
00:49adding,
00:50I think I'm on the right way, especially with my new darts and everything, of course.
00:55I'm sure they'll be noticing me as one of the players to beat once again.
