Spoken to my sponsors and they are fully behind my decision to end challenge tour weekend here.I did enter 3/5 thinking I could manage it but it’s too much for me at the moment. I will continue treatment and hope to be back in competition darts this December 💪 #bestsponsorsever

Matthew Edgar and Robert Thornton have decided not to compete in the 20th PDC Challenge Tour tournament of the season on Sunday.
Edgar is just returning from a wrist and elbow injury and was not planning to play the whole weekend anyway. ''I did enter 3/5 thinking I could manage it but it’s too much for me at the moment. I will continue treatment and hope to be back in competition darts this December'', he wrote on Twitter.
Thornton, who lost a final this weekend, withdrew due to illness for the final tournament on Sunday. The Scot lost to Wesley Plaisier in the final on Friday night.

- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
