THE PDC WORLD Darts Championship will continue without five-time World champion Raymond Van Barneveld after he was stunned 3-2 by Darius Labanauskas in their Round 2 meeting at the Alexandra Palace last night.

Van Barneveld announced last month that he’s retiring with 2019/20 coming as his final season, so won’t add a second PDC title to his collection after his shock exit.
“I wish all the best to Darius Labanauskus for the rest of the tournament,” the Dutchman tweeted afterwards.
