By Ryan Segal It's time for the second Minehead voyage of the season, as Team Unicorn undertake the long winding road to Butlins for the Players Championship Finals.  After a season of toil in the Players Championships, seven members of Team Unicorn have the privilege of taking to one of the two stages.  In order of seeding, here's how the Team Unicorn procession looks ahead of the weekends action:  Leading the team into battle is Ross Smith, who finishes the year in 4th position on the

By Ryan Segal We waltzed into October and into the Mattioli Arena, as the World Grand Prix kicked off the 10th month of 2025.  Cameron Menzies was the first member of Team Unicorn to take to the stage - and set the standard for his teammates, defeating Chris Dobey 2-0 for his first ever win in the tournament - a result that also rocketed him into the World's Top 32 for the first ime.  James Wade couldn't follow Cammy's lead, going out 0-2 to Joe Cullen.  Gary Anderson, however, did join

By Ryan Segal After 14 events that took us all over the continent, the seasons efforts culminate in the European Championship, beginning tonight.  The Top 32 from the European Tour OoM travel to Dortmund, all hoping to put a cherry on their 2025 European cakes.  Among them are four titans sporting the Unicorn logo on their sleek shirts - And here's what you need to know: Gary Anderson may not play a huge amount of European Tour events - but he never fails to make an impact when he does. 

By Ryan Segal As September and its inconsistent weather came upon us, the business end of the darting season came with it.  It started, however, on a light note, with the news that Adam Paxton was learning the words to ‘Homeward Bound’ by Simon and Garfunkel, stemming from a Q&A that occurred a little while ago. We’re both ready – the single is dropping soon…I hope. Eyes then turned to Luton, as James Wade helped to lead the opening of Jewson’s latest store, playing visitors and handing out a

By Ryan Segal Cameron Menzies has said that fixture repetition "doesn't have an effect" as he prepares to face Chris Dobey on the stage for the third time in a month at the World Grand Prix.  The 36 year old Muirkirk thrower is taking part in just his second World Grand Prix, with his opening round opponent being more familiar than the Grand Prix stage.  On debut last year, it didn't quite go to plan for Cammy, as he was nilled by Dave Chisnall in his opener.  He believes, however, that

By Ryan Segal Tom Bissell has said he’s “Really Enjoying” his first year on the professional tour ahead of the Hungarian Darts Trophy. ‘Bizzness’ has taken to the circuit like a duck to water, no mean feat considering his complete lack of PDC experience prior to gaining his tour card. He heads to Budapest for his second European Tour event of the season – and feels his debut appearance will stand him in good stead this weekend: “I think I took a lot away from the first one. It was like seeing the

By Ryan Segal Darren Beveridge has said that the battle to keep his tour card has given him "good drive" ahead of the Hungarian Darts Trophy.  'Ice Cold', who sits 78th in the PDC Order of Merit, travels to Budapest for his first European Tour event of the season, laser focused on securing his spot in the Top 64 by the season's end.  The battle for a spot in the coveted Top 64, is, however, having a positive effect on Beveridge:  "It's given me good drive, to be honest.  I know it's close,
