Bennett on defeating Taylor at Frankfurt Darts Gala: 'That's a dream come true'

Bennett didn't win the event hosted by SAP with Peter Wright claiming the title with victory over Raymond van Barneveld; but 'Boom Boom' called it a dream come true.

Despite that though he knows that he has to keep his feet grounded; with the 13-year old taking the darting world by storm as of late.

"I can't believe I've become a World Champion and beaten Phil Taylor within six months," admitted Bennett to LiveDarts. "That's a dream come true.

"I feel like a kid on Christmas morning, I never believed this was possible. I had a great match with Phil at the Tower of London a couple of months ago but he was too good.

"I was so frustrated with myself for letting that chance go. Then I drew him again here and told myself I wasn't going to let this chance slip.

"During the whole match I just kept focused, I didn’t even give Phil any eye contact just so I forgot that I was playing him!

"It's a brilliant win but now I just have to forget about it very quickly. I know I leapt up in the air again after the final dart but I need to keep my feet on the ground."
