hate people who say darts isnt a sport, i play shit loads of sports and am very good at them, i played county cricket and football when i broke my leg at 17, An all i can say is that there is not much things harder in sport than hitting a nine darter in darts, i seen people moan about them been fat, wtf is that excuse, just like people saying a weightlifter is muscley, this sport takes so much dedication an skill its unbelivable. Respect this sport and its fans are real fans, unlike man u fans
@butcherofbielawa They were but now the BDO uses the Winmau Blade 4 dartboard for their touraments and the wires are thinner than the wires on the Blade 3.
is it me...but ive always thought this....in this tournament the board they use seems to have much thinner trebles and doubles so its much harder. They are alot smaller aint they??
yep the PDC use a board called the Eclipse Pro where the wires are smaller making more room for trebles and doubles.That has a large part to do with the better dart averages in PDC
He did an exhibition at our local and my brother beat him 2-1 with a 156 checkout, John Boy Walton and his wife are really nice people he is a true asset to Darts: Legend

Before submitting such an article why don't you check your facts! You'd know that Walton requests VIP passes for Kirsten Steinborn in "Dart Majors" in the Netherlands. And, she share his room too? In the German tournaments they can be seen freely together in each others company! How do I know this? I am "journeyman" darts player well known in the Netherlands and, always invited to the VIP rooms. Maybe I should use my mobile phone to video them canoodling next time & upload it to you tube!
you should go to a VIP room then, instead of hanging out online posting flashy and stupid comments like that one, maybe i'll film my foot canoodling with your ass. I'm a journeyman ass-kicker from the netherlands. moron
wow you challenging me to a game of darts , you are such a badass! I don't think u realize darts is a hobby not a sport. Drunken college dudes could play this well. but no point in saying that to you journeyman dart player. Hope you get laid soon and stop taking a fucking hobby so seriously. Did you really call me a "mofo" where do you live 1998?

Ugly M/F! I bet his fat ugly wife doesn't know about Kirsten Steinborn in Germany! Yeah, he fucks her whenever he's out there! God! She fat n ugly too!
O MY GOD!! U are a dick mate...John and Sally are a lovely couple and maybe u should know this before posting shite!...U must have a small penis or man boobs or hate the way u look when u look in the mirror posting this sort of shite!!! PRICK!!!
That 9 darter might well have been against me as Martin Phillips just beat me in an earlier round in which missed doubles cost me the match but "Fair Play" Martin is an absolute Gentleman who said to me after our match "You gave me a cracking game". That weekend was the highlight of my darting life. Thanks Martin.......i still have nightmares bout them doubles tho!!!!
would you want some cunt putting u off when u have 80 grand on the line in a bdo final, im sure i wouldnt. hankeys a great scorer, but i think mark webster has a chance in the pdc
ted hankey moans about the crowd and a bit of noise, its a pub game, and will always have the atmosphere, if he doesnt like it, learn how to play snooker the miserable fat c*nt
@billybigmouth He moans about them booing every dart he throws, and cheering when he misses doubles. Snooker, tennis... any sport you can think of that's civilised, that's just disrespectful
Darts is now making it big time on TV. I for one hope that the international matches make it on to TV so that the fans can decide for themselves. I personally know several players who have played for England and know how much it meant to each of them.
PDC is better in terms of prize money. However, the PDC do not seem to have any sort of system for encouraging the youth to play. The BDO encourages younger players through the youth teams of the county system. One thing to remember is that just about all of the British players now playing in the PDC started off with the BDO through the county system.
John Walton, Andy Fordham & Martin Adams have remained loyal to the BDO which has also given them the opportunity to play for their national team

This guy is my grandad... and to be honest hes a prick... he threw a battery at my uncles head cause he was watching darts.
One time in bradford his house was burgled they stole the PS1 and his darts. He thought it was funny about the PS1 but his Darts... he called a helpline.
This man payed his ex-wife £20,000 cash cause he won;t pay the reall money every month. And i got £50 of this money so this man derserves to die and burn in hell
i was there when he threw that 9 darter. it was brilliant when he hit that double twelve, everybody went crazy. for anybody who likes darts should at least goto one tournement like the winmau at bridlington. its a superb weekend off darts.
Agentsub...it is Tony Green. He's been commentating on BDO darts since the BDO was formed. He has seen every single dart thrown at the BDO World Championships to the present day.
Yep and he called the only nine-dart finish in the World Championships. I'm sure he almost cried when John Boy hit a nine-darter, he's been waiting 17 years to call second one.
Ja natuurlijk. John Walton krijgt hiervoor een prijs van £2.000 wat nog redelijk weinig is. Tony O'Shea kreeg voor zijn 9-darter een auto ter waarde van 26000 euro. Ook voor 170 finishes is er een geldprijs.
i have the exact board he got his 9 darter on it has his sinature on wolfiues the wizard jonboy walton and ramond van bornaveld. you want to see it mint condish lol
The caller is Nick Rolls, he replaced George Noble who joined the PDC after Lakeside 2007. I think this was his first televised tournament and he called a nine darter. Didn't take him long did it?
Any moron saying former Masters and World Champion (at the same time, I might add) John Walton 'sucks' for making a nine-darter to win a match, followed by a 170 checkout in the first leg of the next match, should be shot to death in front of their parents.
