Rising Dutch star Gian has reaffirmed his reputation as one of the sport’s most exciting prospects with a series of sparkling performances throughout the last 18 months.
This included a run to the final of a European Tour event in September, where he was narrowly defeated by his compatriot Michael van Gerwen.
A winner of nine Development Tour titles, Van Veen made the semi-finals on his European Championship debut last October, and became World Youth Champion for the first time in November.
