Clog almighty Michael van Gerwen claims some of his rivals played fast and loose with Covid-19 rules at Alexandra Palace last year.
The green machine withdrew from the PDC Darts World Championship before his third round tie with Chris Dobey 12 months ago after a lateral flow test returned the dreaded two red bars. Fellow Dutchman Vincent van der Voort and Dave Chisnall were also forced to abandon their crusades at Ally Pally after contracting the virus.
But Van Gerwen has hinted darkly that other players carried on despite knowing or suspecting they were positive, scowling: “I am just one of the guys who was honest - put it that way.”
