Fans have an amazing opportunity to come across dart stars like Simon 'The Wizard' Whitlock, Kyle Anderson, Peter Wright, Michael van Gerwen, and Fallon Sherrock. Sherrock came to limelight late last year when she became the first woman to beat a man in a PDC World Darts Championships match. The 25-year-old managed to turn the game upside down and stun the crowd as she defeated Evetts, who was ranked 77 in the world at the time. Sherrock is the fifth woman to participate in the men's PDC Championships. She garnered attention after winning the UK and Ireland women's qualifying event.
