Bob Anderson's legendary career brought to a close: "My day is in the sunshine has come and gone"

Bob Anderson played his final official match last weekend. At the World Seniors Darts Masters, he went down 4-0 against Richie Howson in the first round.

"It's been a long career and it's had plenty of high spots. Today it was a low spot for me but it was the final spot," the 75-year-old told Online Darts. "It's the right time for me to retire."
