Fallon Sherrock has advised darts players to push through challenges and avoid using illness as an excuse for subpar performances on the grand stage. While Michael van Gerwen has been sidelined from Premier League action due to illness, Sherrock does not show much empathy towards the Dutch player.
Van Gerwen recently withdrew from three Premier League nights and struggled in his return against Gerwyn Price. Sherrock expressed little sympathy for Mighty Mike’s recent difficulties, highlighting the importance of persevering despite obstacles.
Speaking on Double Tops, Sherrock emphasized the need to give their best effort and carry on despite adversities like illness. She drew attention to the physical challenges women face, such as dealing with periods and associated discomfort, to underline the importance of resilience in professional sports.
Despite his setbacks, Van Gerwen maintains the third position in the Premier League standings. In contrast, Luke Littler, the reigning world titleholder, has had a tough start to the competition, currently ranking seventh out of eight players before the upcoming matches in Cardiff.
Sherrock remains optimistic about Littler’s potential comeback, stating that he is setting a personal challenge for himself. She anticipates a strong resurgence from him in the later stages of the league, believing he is capable of surprising everyone with his performance.
