She was not left many chances in the first round at the PDC’s World Darts Championship in London. A woman had never won a match at the WORLD cup in the male-dominated sport.
It was Fallon Sherrock obviously quite indifferent to. The 25-year-old adult englishman beat his compatriot Ted Evetts with 3-2 in sets, and wrote the history.
Some days later-the 11. seeded austrian Mensur Suljovic – one of the best in the world.
But again it was Sherrock ice cold. She won 3-1 in the set, after she closed on the bulls eye, and is thus ready for the third round. You can read many more wild details of the highest surprising victory here.
TV3 Sports ekspertkommentator in darts Michael Frydendahl is full of praise for Fallon Sherrock.
It is epoch-making in the field of darten. It is a great inspiration for women all over the world right now. They may well be with. It is a great advertisement for kvindedart and darten in general, he says to Ekstra Bladet.
– We have always discussed why women are not as good as men in darts, because all have the same prerequisites. All can the shed here they are 23-25 grams of the 2,37 meters.
– in General, men have always been better, and all of a sudden, she shows that it is not quite the case, for the women could be with.
Darts is often played with a kvinderække and a herrerække – in near under associated PDC (Professional Darts Corporation), which holds the ongoing WORLD cup.
Here, women have been able to participate, if they were good enough. That there is no doubt that Fallon Sherrock is.
– This is a big kick in the butt to kvindedarten, to now, there are some who have gone ahead and shown that it is here it can be done.
Fallon Sherrock was not surprisingly quite happy after the victory in the first round.
– It is clearly one of the best moments I have had. I’m just so happy. I have just written the story and can’t believe it. I have achieved something great for kvindedart, she said, according to the Daily Mail.

Delivers she a new sensation?
Fallon Sherrock meetings Chris Dobey in the third round on Friday.
He is number 22 in the world – that is 11 spots worse than austrian Mensur Suljovic, who Sherrock beat 3-1 in the set. To the story belongs, however, to Suljovic is located inside of a less good school.
– If she plays, as she has done in the first two matches, then there will be an option to be able to beat Chris Dobey, predicts Michael Frydendahl.
– the Advantage is that she has Alexandra Palace (the hall where the WORLD cup is being played, red.) behind him, and no matter who she meets, so will all the onlookers lay a big pressure.
– It is the world’s largest arena with 4.500 spectators against you, which puts further pressure on you. It is of course a big advantage for her, but at the same time, one must also bear in mind that it also puts a strain on her. She has some expectations and will not disappoint.

Difficult conditions
the Way to the dart-the top has in no way been easy for Fallon Sherrock.
In 2014, she gave birth to a son, Rory, who has autism. He requires, therefore, a part of her time, which makes it harder to find time to work out with the arrows and the dial.
She has chosen to donate the board from her victory in the first round away. The money is going to go to the National Autistic Society.
The dartboard from my first round match is still up for auction with all proceeds going to @Autism , highest bid so far is £1000, and also @piersmorgan gift of £1000 . Bids can be emailed the two info@modussports.com or DM @ModusDarts180 thank you so much ends 2nd Jan pic.twitter.com/RgatQBrUyh
