The Belgian Nine-Darter That Wasn’t… But Almost Deserved to Be

Kevin Lankhuizen

Kevin Lankhuizen gave darts fans a brilliant “where have we seen that before?” moment at the ADC Global Championship.

The Belgian came flying out of the blocks with back-to-back 180s and suddenly had everyone watching a little closer. Six perfect darts were in the board, the dream was alive, and the nine-darter radar was fully switched on.

Then came the twist.

Lankhuizen followed it up with 20, treble 19 and double 12, leaving himself tops after nine darts. Technically, not a nine-darter. Emotionally? Very close to one.

It was a wonderfully unusual route, a cheeky almost-perfect leg and exactly the kind of moment that makes darts so entertaining. No official nine-darter, no place in the record books, but definitely a clip worth watching twice.

The Belgian still had the crowd buzzing, and with that setup he gave us the next best thing: a “Belgian nine-darter” with a wink.
