"Mike De Decker was furious after the match" - Cameron Menzies' actions set off bad blood with Belgian darter
PDC
Mike De Decker faced Cameron Menzies in the last 16 of the European Darts Trophy last weekend. It was an incredibly tense match, with both players missing multiple match darts. In the end, it was Menzies who edged out a 6-5 victory, leading to some bizarre celebrations.
As he often does, Menzies put on a theatrical display, even dropping to the floor after miscalculating a shot. De Decker, on the other hand, appeared unfazed—at least on the surface. However, according to Vincent van der Voort, who heard from his close friend Michael van Gerwen, there was more to the story. “Mike completely lost it and couldn’t keep his emotions in check. He was furious after the match, and I can understand why,” Van der Voort revealed on the Darts Draait Door podcast.
Menzies, who is in a relationship with Fallon Sherrock, has been known for his eccentric antics. “You could make a new episode about him every week,” Van der Voort joked. “He’s just a bit crazy—not in a bad way, that’s just who he is.”
De Decker’s ability to remain composed on stage impressed fellow darts player Dirk van Duijvenbode. “I wouldn’t have managed that,” admitted ‘Aubergenius.’ Menzies, however, didn’t make it past the quarterfinals, losing 6-3 to Ryan Joyce.
Van Duijvenbode also recalled another instance of Menzies’ unusual behavior. “At the Belgian Darts Open, he lost 6-5 in the first round to Canadian Matt Campbell. Even two hours later, he was still sulking and acting strangely—hugging Campbell over and over. I must have seen them do it six times! I just thought, ‘What on earth is going on here?’” Van Duijvenbode laughed.

- 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
