Wessel Nijman Has Been Suspended For 5 Years Because Of This Moment

On 14th May Wessel Nijman played an online match against David Evans during the Icons of Darts League. The DRA has found the Dutchman is guilty of matchfixing by deliberately losing 4-0 as there was a big bet of money on this match. He admitted he was guilty, apologized and will accept his punishment.

The DRA has published the punishment today which is a substantial suspension of five years. Two-and-a-half years of this ban will be suspended on the condition that Nijman continues to engage in player education and anti-corruption measures as agreed with the DRA.

Watch two moments of this match below when he had the chance at a double but missed on purpose.
