Van Veen Unfazed by Littler Spat as Premier League Darts Heads to Rotterdam

Gian van Veen has stated that he does not need to talk to Luke Littler to resolve their on-stage dispute during the Premier League in Manchester. Van Veen won a contentious match, which sparked a heated reaction from Littler. Van Veen feels that Littler overreacted and was 'out of order' for celebrating towards the crowd, causing him to stare back. Littler recently shared his perspective on the incident, claiming his celebrations were directed at his girlfriend and dad, and that Van Veen was being a 'cry baby' for putting his darts down prematurely. Despite hearing Littler's side, Van Veen's opinion remains unchanged, but he insists there are no hard feelings between them. Van Veen enjoys the competitive nature of darts but prefers not to be involved in controversies. He is looking forward to facing Littler again, possibly in the semi-finals, and believes their rivalry will only add to the excitement of the sport. Meanwhile, Michael van Gerwen thinks the spat between Van Veen and Littler has been blown out of proportion, comparing it to his own past confrontations with Phil Taylor. The Premier League Darts will continue in Rotterdam, where Van Veen will face Luke Humphries, and Littler will take on Gerwyn Price in a crucial match. The top four players will progress to the Finals Night at The O2 in London on May 28.
