Northern Ireland Win A First World Cup | The 9-Dart Podcast | Episode 22

Episode released on YouTube on 18th June 2025The World Cup of Darts took place in Frankfurt across the weekend and it certainly did not disappoint to say the least. There was qualifying chaos in Group D, miscounts, and plenty of upsets. Northern Island were victorious in what was an unbelievable campaign, with Josh Rock and Daryl Gurney lifting the cup for their nation for the very first time. Lots of honourable mentions, flops and a big disappointment, however it was certainly an incredible tournament. Away from the World Cup, the boys discuss the difficulty of claiming a tour card outside of Europe and the UK through team Hong Kong's comments. Lorenzo picks out his future star for the week, and we finally have the qualification system lined up for Alexandra Palace this year! Brody Klinge stars in Albury, more Asian Tour events announced, and Chris Dobey wins Players Championship 17. Andy Hamilton wins Week 5 at MODUS, Josh hits a 180 in a live game, and we review the darts archive from last week.
