THROWBACK VIDEO: Paul Lim hits first World Championship nine-dart finish 31 years ago today
BDO
With the BDO World Darts Championship not taking place this year due to the demise of the organisation, DartsNews continues to look at the best moments and matches that shaped darting history from this tournament.
The latest is one of the greatest moments in darting history with Paul Lim hitting the first World Championship nine-dart finish thirty years ago today.
He was facing off against Jack McKenna in the second round and pinned the perfect leg which went down in history.
This came after the first TV nine-darter in 1984 hit by John Lowe. Lim nearly achieved the feat again at the 2018 World Championship in an extraordinary moment and continues to thrill crowds today by qualifying for the PDC World Darts Championship year on year.
