Dartsnews.com understands that walk-on girls are soon to be a thing of the past in PDC events.
It was previously understood that only tournaments shown on Sky would be shorn of walk-on girls. Barry Hearn vowed not to allow the pairing of models with players taking to the stage to disappear. "In my opinion, they belong to darts," Hearn claimed.
But he has been met with opposition, who claim the regular feature of PDC tournaments is now outdated. Michael van Gerwen told Dutch newspaper Algemeen Dagblad that "darts is ready for the next step". Now it is believed that no televised event will feature walk-on girls. ITV and the BBC, as well as Sky, have committed to removing them.

- I will be sorely disappointed if I don't hear at least one chorus of "There's only one Pusey Magnet" from the crowd.thebogeyman20-12-2025
- It's his attitude. Zero fight when it's not going his way and looks like the darts owe him a treble. He carries every poor visit into the next one. Maybe he should decide one final year, goodbye tour and f*ing enjoy itBandB18-12-2025
- Difficult one. Obviously has some struggles but you can't allow that behaviour. The damage to his hand from punching and blocking the pyrotechnics will keep him out for months anyway, but ban to the matchplay and fine whatever his prize money was for this event, with a heavy suspended ban on top.BandB17-12-2025
- 1 year ban and £15,000 fine.medinabello16-12-2025
- can you not at least attempt to proof read these recaps? the whitlock scutt one in particular is both inaccurate and mindbogglingly unreadablecolt16-12-2025
- Look, everyone knows he likes to wind up his opponents. Today,his worst,and always will be,best opponent,is himself. I don't dislike the bloke,but he can only blame himself.rick6715-12-2025

- DRA - just a warning please. Obviously not deliberate, in good spirits a s immediate apology. (P.s. Good on you Joe! Tough season, hope you keep that standard into the next round and beyond)BandB14-12-2025
- This bozo says he can't take darts any further and he's left it in a good place.....no-one cares about this nobody. The PDC was always in a good place before he came along. Does this buffon think the crowd are there for him.richieburnettrocks14-12-2025
- Yes, a warning indeed. He is coming to the buffet table, out of his way. This class A goof continues to blither about how he is playing the best darts of his life and even had the laughable audacity to say he was in the best shape of his life. He had a lucky run at Blackpool and even luckier at the World Championship and is still living off that. His form the past year especially the last 6 months completely sucks. 6 micky mouse titles mean nothing.richieburnettrocks13-12-2025
