Wow - I’m lost for words, that’s one of my best performances of my career I think. to play like that is amazing and against @MvG180 is always tough. I felt great all day and so pleased to reach another semi final. appreciate the support from everyone @Winmau @VansdirectUK.

Very disappointed not to be in the 2019 @OfficialPDC PL as I had a good year and remain in top 10 of the world rankings, my averages were high and I performed well in most TV events. it is a kick in the teeth BUT it will make me more focused and determined this season 🙆🏼♂️🙆🏼♂️😥🙄.

Getting bored about hearing my points damage the boards. 🤫🙄, the problem is the boards are too inconsistent “ soft / hard/ soft” . give me decent boards and I’ll adapt my points to suit - many players use adapted points not just me 👀🤐.

As a closure on the constant debate about my points, they are perfectly legal to use and I will continue to use them all the time I feel comfortable using them. Hopefully commentators and critics will accept that and focus on other things as it is beyond tedious now 👍.

I am really disappointed not to have won that match last night but big enough to say that I had my chances and didn't take them. Losing that was hard to take but I've not come this far to let it affect me. I want another TV title and I'm going to get one sooner or later.

Still in shock how I lost that game, my own fault missing doubles in 2 huge legs. Played lovely and more in the tank. Peter played well. Roll on U.K. Open, surely I can’t keep hitting the crossbar, my time will come very soon. Thanks to everyone for the constant support 👏

Very disappointed with tonight, hard to focus when distracted from the start. No point me trying to explain as will be deemed as sour grapes. I was fortunate to be in the event, so to reach the last 4, play amazing in 2 games & move to 15 in the world is a huge positive for me.

After careful consideration, I have decided not to enter the 2020 PDC Q School this week. It was massively disappointing for me to lose my Tour Card at the end of 2019. I'd given everything last year but it wasn't enough in the end and I've got no complaints.
