Fallon Sherrock has advised darts players to push through challenges and avoid using illness as an excuse for subpar performances. Despite Michael van Gerwen’s absence from Premier League action due to illness, Sherrock expressed little sympathy for the Dutch player.

Van Gerwen recently withdrew from three Premier League nights and struggled upon his return against Gerwyn Price. Sherrock, when asked about Van Gerwen’s difficulties, emphasized the need to persevere through tough situations.

She highlighted the physical challenges faced by female players, mentioning menstrual cramps as an example. Sherrock emphasized the importance of pushing oneself to perform well despite unfavorable circumstances, pointing out that excuses are not conducive to success in darts.

Despite Van Gerwen’s setbacks, he maintains the third position in the Premier League standings. In contrast, Luke Littler, the reigning world titleholder, has had a challenging start to the competition, currently ranking seventh out of eight players before the upcoming Cardiff event.

Sherrock remains optimistic about Littler’s performance, believing he is setting himself up for a strong comeback in the later stages of the competition. She anticipates Littler proving doubters wrong and securing a spot at the O2 in London through exceptional gameplay.
