Iceland celebrate Robert Owen's PDC World Darts Championship heroics with incredible personalised delivery van
PDC
At the 2025 PDC World Darts Championship, Welshman Robert Owen starred, going on a run to the last 16 and keeping his place on the PDC Pro Tour. During the tournament, Owen's part-time job as an Iceland supermarket delivery driver came to late and now, 'Stack Attack's employers have celebrated Owen's heroics in incredible style.
As seen in images posted on social media by the MODUS Super Series account, Iceland have now gifted Owen a personalised delivery van and Iceland uniform. "Iceland and The Food Warehouse proudly celebrate the ice cool Robert Owen!" Reads a message emblazoned on the side of the Welshman's personal delivery van and on the back of his trademark red Iceland uniform.

As mentioned, during the recent PDC World Darts Championship, Owen fought to keep his PDC Tour Card hopes alive, eventually scrapping his way all the way to the last 16 before eventually losing out to Callan Rydz at the Alexandra Palace.
During the Worlds, he also spoke about his part-time role at Iceland. "I had to go to work because she (his wife ed.) was on maternity leave," Owen said. "We couldn't afford to really have no-one out of work. I went back to work and I've been working 50, sometimes 60 hours a week while she's been off just to cover everything. That's my responsibility as a father and a parent. But amongst all that, I've been going away and playing darts. I think I've done pretty well, probably the last seven, eight months while all that's been going on. But I love my job. I love going out to the community and going everywhere.I don't feel like I'm doing a job. I'm delivering people shopping and I enjoy it, which is sad, really."

- The next prodigy (prodigies) are just round the corner. Wonder if it gets to the stage of 180 after 180 being hit leg after leg whether there will be a modification to the equipment such as reduced doubles and trebles, reduce the size of the board or length of the oche?Mysstree25-03-2025
- obviously littler has the potential to surpass everybody simply because nobody has been this good at this age before, but people who think he would be any kind of favourite right now against prime taylor in a big final have short memories. it's obvious that prime taylor wouldn't win as many world titles if he was playing today, but there's also good reason to believe he'd be winning more than anybody else. hell, his statistical profile still stands alone in darts history and he might statistically be even better if he was playing today with better equipment, larger beds, more competition therefore more motivation, etc.colt24-03-2025
