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,

''Top four is a dream position to be in, but it is achievable''JAMES WADE has set his sights on a Premier League return and a spot in the world’s elite.  ‘The Machine’ is up to World No.5 after a blistering start to 2025, reaching the UK Open and World Matchplay finals.  Aldershot thrower Wade has featured in 12 Premier League campaigns, winning the title in 2009, with his most recent outing in 2022 seeing him finish third in the league phase before falling to Michael van Gerwen in the semi-finals.

WADE ADMITS HE NEARLY WALKED AWAY FROM DARTSJAMES WADE admits he came close to walking away from darts altogether as it would have been “100 per cent the best thing” for his mental health.  The World No.5 was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder at 27-years-old.  Wade, 42, now represents the charity Bipolar UK as an ambassador – a role he has held since 2016.  Aldershot thrower Wade revealed he had struggled with the conditions pre-diagnosis.  He

CAMERON MENZIES admits he'd have got the sack if he didn’t quit work to pursue his darting dream.  The World No.34 has dumped his job as a plumber to focus on the oche.  Menzies, 36, takes on Danny Noppert in the World Matchplay in Blackpool on Saturday night as he bids to further his successful year.  He has shown he already belongs amongst the best after winning the Players Championship 11 in April and reaching a further TWO finals on the floor this year.  But Menzies revealed travel

Four representatives from Team Unicorn will grace the stage at the Winter GardensBy Ryan Segal July means many things to many people – but here at Unicorn HQ, it means we’re packing our bags and heading up to Blackpool for the World Matchplay. Widely considered the second biggest major in the sport, behind the World Championship, the tournament sees the Top 16 in the Main Order of Merit and the Top 16 in the Pro Tour Order of Merit travel to Lancashire to battle it out for the Phil Taylor Trophy.

''It would be nice to do what I did seven years ago''GARY ANDERSON is looking to roll back the years and repeat his World Matchplay glory from seven years ago.  ‘The Flying Scotsman’ has been in great form this year after already bagging the Players Championship Seven and the European Darts Grand Prix titles.  Eight-times major winner Anderson added more proof he’s in the mood for a big Winter Gardens run by making the final of the Baltic Sea Open in Kiel at the weekend before losing out 8-3
