Michael Van Gerwen previews World Darts Championship<\/h3>\n

Darts star Thibault Tricole launched an arrow at the floor in an angry outburst after winning his first ever set in the World Darts Championship on Monday night. The 34-year-old became the first Frenchman to win a match in the tournament\u2019s history after overcoming Mario Vandenbogaerde at the Alexandra Palace in London.<\/p>\n

Tricole found himself up against it during his first round clash and dropped the first set as Vandenbogaerde impressed from the off. But the Frenchman found his form as the match went on and had the chance to close out the second set with a double 20.<\/p>\n

Tricole missed the board with his first attempt but nailed it with his second dart as he drew the match level. And he appeared to be furious that it had taken him two efforts to hit the routine double as he proceeded to throw his third dart to the ground as he shook his head from side to side and pointed his thumb towards the floor.<\/p>\n

Tricole soon put the incident behind him, however, as he allowed himself to smile before taking a swig of his drink.<\/p>\n

The French star had won the final two legs of the second set and went on to win the first two of the third set as he turned on the style. Vandenbogaerde then rallied with two legs of his own, before Tricole took the lead by clinching the third set. The match was a tight affair from start to finish as every set went to a last-leg decider. But Tricole held his nerve to claim the fourth set and secure the victory.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course I’m proud [to be the first Frenchman to win at the World Darts Championships],\u201d Tricole said after the showdown. \u201cMario is a good friend of mine so it was very strange for me and for him.<\/p>\n
