"This is a day I will always remember" - Cor Dekker creates sensation with nine-darter at Hungarian Darts Trophy

Cor Dekker caused a sensation at the 2024 Hungarian Darts Trophy on Saturday afternoon. The 36-year-old Norwegian threw a nine-darter for the first time in his PDC career, but eventually lost 6-2 to Stephen Bunting.
Trailing 5-1, Dekker, a Dutch-born Norwegian, first threw back to back 180s before successfully finishing with treble 20, treble 15 and double 18. "That was a magical moment when that dart on double 18 hit," Dekker said afterwards delightedly. "That nine-darter really gave me goosebumps, even though I was losing in the match. Afterwards it was hard to concentrate and I ended up losing the match as well, yet I will always remember this day."
Cor Dekker competed for Norway at this year's World Cup of Darts.
Dekker did not deny his origins and played in an orange jersey. "I'm Dutch by birth but have lived in Norway for 12 years, that's why I've been coming out for that country for a while and I'm going to continue to do so in the future."
Earlier this year, Dekker also competed for Norway at the World Cup of Darts alongside Hakon Bjorge Helling, where they stranded in the group stage after a win against Hungary and a defeat against Poland.

- Even the Hearns and the PDC have had to kowtow to the DEI brigade or lose sponsorship, the DEI activist base may be small but is very vocal and being cancelled is bad for business and profit.
