Gordon Mathers was handed the inaugural
Kyle Anderson Memorial Trophy after his display at the Queensland Darts Masters and it is one that left him emotional.
A huge part of Australasian darts, Anderson passed away last August but was honoured through the trophies during this year's World Series in Australia and New Zealand including one for the best player from the region over the course of the three tournaments.
“I’m lost for words to win this award,” said Mathers.
“Words cannot describe what Kyle and I went through – three years travelling together, so to be the inaugural winner of this award, honestly I cannot speak.
“What Kyle has brought to kids in Australasia is second to none. He loved working with the youngsters – that was his baby.”
