Yes, once again I am proud to report that Australia has another world champion :
AUSTRALIAN darts ace Tony David is a double world champion after beating all before him in a huge new competition in Holland - dubbed 'the Dutch Embassy'.
The likeable Queenslander proved his amazing display at the Embassy last January was far from a one-hit wonder when he annihilated opponent Tony O'Shea 6-0 in the final of the first ever World Darts Trophy.
O'Shea had been in blistering form all week - hitting a maximum 170 check-out - but David was as cool in Holland as he was at Frimley Green's Lakeside at the beginning of the year when he defeated Mervyn King to take the top prize.
Around 15,000 Dutch darts fanatics witnessed the breathtaking World Darts Trophy - with just about all of them praying for a home victory. Their wishes looked like coming true until Netherland's hero and two times Embassy king Raymond van Barneveld was knocked out by O'Shea in a nailbiting semi-final encounter that went 5-4 in favour of the Englishman.
Just gets you all misty eyed don't it

Hey Donut, I thought your boys were good at this sport
- a 6-blot result is quite a whipping, wouldn't you say?
