Michael Smith produced an exceptional late burst to surge past Michael van Gerwen and seal the US Darts Masters, the first to be held at Madison Square Garden.
For Smith, it sees him continue a rich vein of form and also become the first winner at the historic venue after an 8-4 win in the early hours of Sunday morning.
“Do you know how mad that sounds,” said Smith on winning the first darts event at Madison Square Garden. “I’m just a kid from St Helens watching rugby on TV now I’m in front of these fantastic people and I got the win, I’m over the moon.”
He was open after his first win over Doug Boehm about his nerves and admitted that went throughout the tournament.
“I was bricking it, even in the semi’s against Peter (Wright) I had a good second session and the same against Michael. I’m just on a rollercoaster at the minute, I’m playing decent and I’m getting lucky as well so long may it continue.”

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024
