In the 5th leg of his semifinal Joe Cullen became the 5th player to play 2000 legs on the Euro Tour. Not bad for someone, who despises travelling Europe.

Joe Cullen came up short in the final of the Austrian Darts Open on Sunday night. 'The Rockstar' went down 8-4 against Luke Littler in Graz.
In the semi-finals, Cullen took a 7-5 victory over Stephen Bunting. In the fifth leg of that semi-final however, Cullen wrote a piece of history, as it was his 2,000th leg on the European Tour. Notably, Cullen has now gone on to 2,019 thanks to the legs that followed, with just Michael van Gerwen (3,394), Peter Wright (2,681), Dave Chisnall (2,255) and Michael Smith (2,052) in the illustrious group alongside 'the Rockstar'.
The 34-year-old Englishman has been majorly successful on occasion on the European Tour in the past. He has won three tournaments, European Darts Matchplay 2019, International Darts Open 2020 and Hungarian Darts Trophy 2022. Cullen has also moved up to 15th place in the world rankings thanks to his final place.

- I hope it does get some harsh crowd treatment,,, it should not even be there. However, it failed at it own XY chromosome level... so now - it has to try and make itself look good playing amongst the ladies. Not good.MrYnyslas197121-10-2024
- I agree with you, thebogeyman... I hope it gets the full hairdryer treatment. An imposter (failed male) that has to compete with women to look good. Grim.MrYnyslas197121-10-2024
- I can imagine van Leuven will indeed be booed out of the building and championship, the crowd will be on his back reminiscent of when Justin Pipe played Phil Taylor. The crowd are usually boisterous and out of control at the best of times.richieburnettrocks21-10-2024
