The channel drew a record number of viewers during the most important darts tournament of the year, with Gabriel Clemens becoming the first German dart player ever to reach the semifinals.
Clemens' semifinal against eventual world champion Michael Smith was watched by as many as 3.78 million people on Sport1. That is a record for darts on the open net in Germany.
It was also the third best-watched broadcast in Sport1's 30-year history. As a result, SPORT1 has been nominated for Germany's most prestigious media award.

- We don't need the Saudi's money and prohibitive laws. Simply take the World's to other countries like Germany, Holland, Scotland, Poland, Belgium. Not only will you get sell out crowds with bigger venues but it will also freshen up the comp a bit. Let's face it Ally Pally is getting a bit boring now. Imagine 10,000 in Berlin, Rotterdam, Brussels etc.medinabello15-12-2024
