Fallon Sherrock delivered yet another incredible performance at the WORLD cup, when she in the second round beat 11.-seeded austrian.
a few days ago was the 25-year-old englishman Fallon Sherrock the first woman ever to win a match at the men’s dart VM. Late Saturday evening she wrote a new chapter in his ongoing adventures with arrows.
In the second round was Sherrock big underdog against 11.-seeded Mensur Suljovic of Austria, which belongs to the absolute world, but the englishman delivered a new sensation.
She took a victory at 3-1 in the set and is now among the final 32 players in the tournament. In 16.-delsfinalen she will meet compatriot Chris Dobey.
Qualifier Sherrock is once again the underdog, but Dobey is on paper worse than Suljovic, and self-confidence is great at the 25-year-old woman.
when Asked by Sky Sports if she can go all the way at the WORLD cup, she says:
– Why not? I have won two matches, sounds from the woman, which is on everyone’s lips in the dartverdenen in these days.
– I am going to take one match at a time, but there is nothing which points to the fact that I can’t do it. I will go for it.
She is one of two women who played forward for the WORLD cup-the main tournament via the qualifiers, but where Mikuru Suzuki lost in the first round, has Sherrock in the degree taken the WORLD cup stage.
– I have proven that we (the women, red.) can beat all. I have now beaten two of the world’s best players. If not it proves that women can play darts, so I don’t know what do, she says.
in its first match at the WORLD cup got Fallon Sherrock Saturday throughout the tilskuerskaren in Alexandra Palace in London, with themselves in the fight against Suljovic.
At 1-1 in the set, she was down 0-2 in the third set, before she with a nice comeback came back. And with a beautiful arrow in the bulls eye as the ending of the fourth set was the English woman the hall with several thousand people to go crazy in cheers.
She is the fifth woman to participate in the men’s darts WORLD cup, but the first to win a match. Which has now been to two matches.
four years ago was Sherrock number two by the women’s darts WORLD cup.
