Adrian Lewis Statement following DRA sanctions

Following on from the news that Adrian Lewis has receive a £3000 fine, and a suspended 3 month suspension, he has issued the following statement.
I am now in a position to issue a statement as the due process has taken place and the Darts Regulation Authority have had their hearing.
I deeply regret that my frustrations got the better of me as I felt that my opponent was trying to provoke me.
I realise now that I should have reported any problems to Tournament Officials instead of confronting Jose Antonio Justicia Perales after the match.
I would like to offer my sincere apologies to the PDC, the sponsors of the event Coral, my own sponsors who I thank for their loyalty and support, my manager, darts fans and finally my family.
I would like to say a big thank you for all of the kind messages sent to me from all over the World, and now I just want to put this all behind me and concentrate of playing the game I love and trying to make my way back to the top.
