Peter Wright and John Henderson were popular winners of the recent World Cup of Darts and this has stretched back home with congratulations from Scottish Parliament.
Ms Maree Todd, the Minister for Public Health, Women’s Health and Sport sent them a congratulatory letter.
"I am writing to offer you my warmest congratulations in recognition of your fantastic performance in winning the World Cup of Darts for Scotland,” wrote Todd.
"Well done on your win over Austria in the final, especially coming back to win from being three nil down in the doubles!
"It's clear from your emotion and passion throughout the tournament how much it meant to you both representing and winning the World Cup for your country. You should be rightly proud of your achievement.
"Congratulations again and I look forward to following both your careers in many more competitions to come."
Henderson has also received congratulations on social media from golfer Paul Lawrie and footballer John Hartson following the victory.
