The PDC has decided not to penalize Fallon Sherrock for her behavior during the World Championship match against Dave Chisnall. Sherrock playfully imitated an incident involving a drinks table that her former partner Cameron Menzies had damaged earlier in the week.
Cameron Menzies suffered injuries after venting his frustration on the table following a loss to Charlie Manby. The 36-year-old Scotsman and Sherrock, who dated for four years before parting ways amicably, have both faced challenges in the tournament.
PDC CEO Matt Porter emphasized the availability of support for Menzies in dealing with the aftermath of his defeat. The well-being of the players remains a top priority for the organization.
Sherrock, like Menzies, was eliminated in the first round after a tough match against Chisnall. Despite missed opportunities, Sherrock’s performance was seen as good-natured.
Menzies, the 26th seed, faced a close defeat against Manby, citing personal struggles following the recent passing of his uncle as contributing factors to his emotional reaction on stage.
Chisnall acknowledged the competitiveness of the match against Sherrock, recognizing her potential if she had capitalized on her opportunities. He expressed gratitude for the crowd’s support during the game.
Chisnall advances to the next round to compete against Ricardo Pietreczko, with more first-round matches scheduled for Friday. Rising talent Beau Greaves is set to start her World Championship journey against Daryl Gurney.
