Damon Heta has amazed the Alexandra Palace crowd with an outstanding nine-darter.
Even his competitor, Luke Woodhouse, appeared to enjoy the impressive feat.
Following a brief Christmas break, Heta and Woodhouse returned to the PDC World Darts Championship.
The Australian quickly gave the enthusiastic audience something to celebrate.
Despite initially dropping the first set to Woodhouse, Heta made an impressive comeback.
His nine-darter marked only the second of its kind recorded in this year’s tournament.
Last week, Christian Kist was the first to pull it off.
This year, players have a stronger motivation to strive for a nine-darter.
A new initiative rewards players with a £60,000 bonus for achieving this milestone.

Moreover, each nine-darter scored will generate a £60,000 donation to charity, alongside a cash prize for a fortunate fan present at the event.
The fan who won the cash prize after Kist’s nine-darter last week exclaimed, “this can’t be real” when selected.
