Sherrock replaces Prins as a seed at the Winmau World Masters
NewsTuesday, 19 September 2017 at 14:30
The 2015 World Championship runner-up, Fallon Sherrock, has qualified as one of the eight seeded players at the Winmau World Masters later this month following Dutch player Sharon Prins’ withdrawal from the tournament.
Sherrock was placed ninth in the BDO women’s rankings at the September 11th cut-off date and therefore outside the automatic qualification places. However, commitments to the Dutch World Cup team and family, means Prins is no longer able to compete at the tournament.
“Fallon was only four points behind Sharon in the ranking tables,” says Winmau’s Sales and Marketing Director, Ian Flack. “It’s a shame Sharon won’t be at the 44th Winmau World Masters, but I’m sure Fallon is delighted to be able to compete as the eighth seed and not have to battle her way through the incredibly tough floor matches.”
The Winmau World Masters is the longest-running darts major and will be played at the Bridlington Spa, from September 25th – 27th. Some of the best players in the world will compete for Winmau titles in Men’s Women’s, Disability, Boys and Girls events.

- Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
- I dont like individuals or crowds trying to put any player off when they are trying to check out, how anyone can think its okay for the crowd to whistle or shout as someone is throwing for a double is beyond me but it does seem to have become part and parcel of the modern game. I no longer play now, darts is as good as dead at a local level round my way but when i did play many years ago, no matter how intense the rivalry you never shouted out or whistled when an opponent from the other team was throwing for a double.Mysstree17-11-2024
- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.
UndartedWaters16-11-2024 - So, you don't like Littler, then? I was cheering him on, being a fellow Englishman. Honestly, some of us get far too offended nowadays. If you want to see crowd passion... watch a match when German and Dutch players face off... that can be just as bad if not worse for crowd noises. It happens, I have watched and heard Littler being jeered - Dirk van Duijvenbode in Holland, January this year. Where was your outrage then? Yes, I can clearly see what is going on here.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
