Robyn Byrne took the European title in the singles tournament at the WDF Europe Cup 2024 in Slovakia. The Irish player won in the final over Noa-Lynn van Leuven to capture the title.
Van Leuven had conceded just one leg en route to the final. She started the tournament with wins over Ariana Porroche (4-0), Greta Tekauer (4-0), Anna Votavova (4-0) and Rhian O'Sullivan to reach the quarterfinals. That was followed by victories over Lorraine Hyde (5-1) and Michelle Merlit (6-0) for a spot in the European Cup finals. Byrne dealt successively with Susanna McGimpsey (4-0), Sara Foconetti (4-0), Nikki Bardsley (4-1), Samantha Kirton (4-1), Marina Letica (5-2) and Katie Sheldon (6-3).
In the final, Byrne had a sublime start. Thanks to a 15-darter and two 14-darters, the 27-year-old Irish darter won the first five legs of the match. Van Lueven then managed to reduce the deficit to 6-4, but still had to concede in the eleventh leg.
