Kyle Anderson talks one-on-one with Stuart Pyke whilst in Brisbane for the World Series. In this exclusive interview for Unicorn Darts, Kyle discusses some the health issues which are impacting on his game.

Ian White has extended his stay with Team Unicorn.
The popular 48-year-old has penned a new deal as he bids to turn on the style in the big TV tournaments.
