## Resource

Northern Ireland’s World Cup darts reign came to an end in a dramatic semi-final loss to the Netherlands, who cruised to victory with eight legs to two, ending their one-year title reign. Despite a fiery run that included nail-biting wins over Belgium and Latvia — highlighted by Josh Rock’s legendary 144 checkout — the Dutch duo proved too strong. England, featuring Luke Littler and Luke Humphries, seized the title in the final with a commanding 10-5 win, setting the stage for a new championship chapter. Though heartbreakingly close, Northern Ireland’s grit and Rock’s unforgettable moment will linger as defining highlights of their campaign.
