MICHAEL VAN GERWEN completed a brace of victories on Saturday to move into the quarter-finals of the Ladbrokes Players Championship Finals in Minehead.
The defending champion enjoyed wins against Keegan Brown and Ben Burton to book his place in the final day of action on Sunday.
“I had a couple of comfortable wins but that is because I didn’t underestimate my opponents,” said the world number one.
“I am feeling good and confident and fully concentrated on retaining this title.”
Van Gerwen takes on Steve Lennon in the quarter-finals on Sunday.
