Mardle led throughout taking it 56.3% to 43.7% to Van Barneveld in the end with close to 20,000 people getting involved to bring ‘Hawaii 501’ the crown of undisputed king of the walk ons.
This run has prompted some brilliant reaction from Mardle himself who in the past few days has done a re run of his walk on every time he has gone through with his dog Sherlock in tow.
This saw him get past the likes of Phil Taylor, Michael Van Gerwen and his fellow Sky Sports colleague and entertainer on the Oche, Devon Petersen.
As a result of this final, Mardle will now recreate Barney’s Walk on and the same will occur with the Dutchman attempting to do ‘Hawaii 501’s justice which will be a great prospect for fans.
In addition, Unibet offered betting for this tournament and have declared they will give all profits to Parkinson’s UK, a charity close to the PDC.
