Sherrock reflects on effects of PDC World Championship success: “I'm hoping what I've done has propelled women in sport”

Fallon Sherrock was one of the main stories of the PDC World Championship claiming multiple victories and making history hence giving her the nickname of Queen of the Palace.

Despite that though Sherrock dreams of more opportunities after having her life completely changed: “I was just a normal everyday person really. Your stay-at-home mum, but since the Worlds, my normal life has just exploded. I'm just so busy, I've got loads of opportunities come up, I've got loads of exhibitions, it's all back and forth now," said the Milton Keynes thrower to Sky Sports.

"It's incredible because I didn't think I'd be the one doing all this, it's insane. I try not to get overwhelmed with it all, but I'm not really taking it all in. I haven't looked at the massive impact it's had. I'm still focusing on my darts and putting it to the back of my head and not come to terms with it all."

"You've got to put the hours in. I spend four hours a day practising, but if you put the hours in and have the determination then you can get to where the big boys are," Sherrock added.

After her success, Sherrock hopes that it acts as inspiration to people: "I'm so proud of how I've inspired everyone to take up darts. To try and be the best they can and push themselves.

"I'm hoping what I've done has propelled women in sport. Everyone just needs a bit more recognition and more opportunities. If we get that, then it could excel."
