Outdoor Darts: Littler, Humphries & Fallon Sherrock star at Hyde Park
PDCFriday, 11 July 2025 at 11:10
On Tuesday evening, some of the biggest names in darts – including Luke Littler, Luke Humphries, Fallon Sherrock, and Nathan Aspinall – took part in a rather unique event: The Hyde Darts Park Championship. What made it so special? All matches were played outdoors on a large stage, rather than inside a traditional indoor venue.
The tournament featured a fun pairs competition, with the pros teaming up with well-known British personalities, followed by a mini singles tournament between the professional players themselves.
In the pairs event, Fallon Sherrock and British TV actor Joe Swash emerged victorious, defeating Nathan Aspinall and former footballer Dion Dublin in the final. Dublin, who previously played for the likes of Manchester United and Aston Villa, couldn't quite get the better of Sherrock and Swash, who sealed the win 2-1 in a best-of-three legs format.
In the singles tournament, it was Luke Humphries who lifted the trophy. ‘Cool Hand Luke’ edged out Fallon Sherrock 6-5 in a tight semi-final, before facing his namesake Luke Littler in the final. Littler had overcome Aspinall 6-3 in his own semi-final, but couldn’t stop Humphries in the decider, with the world number one taking a 6-4 win.
It was a memorable and unconventional evening of darts, made even more challenging by the outdoor conditions – especially the wind. Fortunately for the players, the sport’s biggest titles are still contested indoors.

- Sophie v Paige warranted a final and deserved a longer format, despite the completely shambolic start to the match regarding the scoring which I think unnerved both players, it was an excellent game. Both are outstanding players with great futures in darts. It was a shame such talented players had to meet so early and that Paige is out, she is brilliant and blitzed Sophie in that first set. Fantastic comeback from Sophie, so calm and nonchalant, survived a real scare but hope she becomes World Champion.richieburnettrocks04-12-2025

- Oh fudge off. Who the hell decided Mardull was preferred choice. Just look as its idiotic face. What a talentless waste of space What a travesty when you compare what ITV had. He comes across as a jokey person but it's a class A piece of sheet, miserable as hell and completely full of himself. I don't know anyone who can say anything positive about this goof. Hopefully he'll meet Chris Mason in a dark alley. It really is paving over paradise.richieburnettrocks26-11-2025
- Needs to get the dart tip up when he pulls the dart back and his game will come back.BandB25-11-2025
- Absolutely disgraceful, really I've said many times that ITV coverage is superior to SKY and SKY know that. Jacqui was absolutely fantastic and extremely knowledgeable. Emma from SKY is more interested in what to wear than learning about darts. Chris Mason is absolutely the best and greatest commentator on TV, even better than Alex Jacques on F1 and Alex is absolutely brilliant. It is criminal that Chris and Alan will probably never be on TV again, what an amazing waste of talent. Poor Ned, who is just as excellent and knowledgeable on darts as the Tour de France has lost both gigs this year. The whole ITV team from presentation, commentary, production the whole team will definitely be missed and I have enjoyed every minute of their coverage. Thank you so much. John Part is the ONLY decent and knowledgeable person on SKY. I liked Glenn Durrant the player but he is awkward and dreadful on commentary all the rest are utterly useless.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025
- Gurney is off form and will completely crack and have a meltdown as the crowd will be relentless, although I think Beau will beat him anyway. I also think Fallon will beat the Helium voiced Chisnall. Poor Gemma has a toughie Peter Wright is also completely off the boil but will probably squeeze past Lisa. Ian White v Mervyn King is an old school classic.richieburnettrocks24-11-2025

- Hate the idea. Darts is loud and exciting without this gimmick format. Golf needs it because it's otherwise boring. Sorry but same applies for royale rumble style knock out.BandB19-11-2025
