    Also probably still holds a grudge from that final in ireland years ago when mvg did all that to get the crowd behind him and they constantly jeered and booed king for no reason

    In fairness they boo-ed King because he'd spent the previous decade pretty much being a knob-jockey, and embracing his own 'heel' reputation. It worked against him when the PDC abandoned the whole 'best of order please ladies and gentleman' thing around that time.

    MVG played well all weekend. Best in a long time.
    Looks like he will take some stopping in the Worlds if he can carry on those 105 averages.

    dunno about that,he is still way off what he was 3-4 yrs ago.
    if tonights final lets say was 3-4 yrs ago then he would have blown merve away in 30 odd mins.

    King played excellent in the final.

    99.78 average and 62% on doubles.
    Nobody would have blown him away with those numbers.

    I thought King would get battered in the final but he stuck with MvG the whole way through. Very impressed by him. He needs to stop letting himself get wound up so easy though.

    Huge confidence booster for MvG going into the worlds now.

    That's the key
    In the past when he was near unbeatable it was because his scoring/finishing was so good that even if he met an opponent on a hot scoring day (like Merv last night) he was still able to outscore them
    Recently when he's been beat its usually because he dips too regularly below that level so is open to being beat by someone on a hot streak. Lot more players around too who can score heavily expecially over the shorter format games
    Remains to be seen if he can be consistent enough through the worlds and keep his level high
    Also misses a lot more doubles than he used to - missed a few match darts last night...
