With the BDO World Darts Championship not taking place this month due to the organisation’s demise, DartsNews looks back at classic moments and matches throughout January from the showpiece event.
Onto 1996 we go and it was Steve Beaton who ended up as champion dethroning defending champion Richie Burnett 6-3 in the final.
Beaton was the number one seed and defeated some brilliant names en route to the title including Co Stompé, John Part, Martin Adams and Andy Fordham before defeating 'The Prince of the Wales'.

- Barney should completely stop playing darts, his legacy has long long gone. Maybe the new wife insists on an expensive lifestyle, if so, take up commentating or presenting. Forget playing.richieburnettrocks22-12-2024
