The Queen of the Oche might be stepping away, but she’s not leaving without fireworks.
Fallon Sherrock, the darts trailblazer who changed the sport forever, is gearing up for what could be her last major appearance for a while — and fans are not ready. With the 2026 season hiatus looming, Sherrock is making one final charge at the Women’s World Matchplay crown, and let’s just say, it’s personal.
The 30-year-old fan favorite, who made history by dismantling male opponents at the PDC World Championship back in 2019, has confirmed she’s taking a break in 2026. Cue the collective gasp across the darting universe.
But before the break, Fallon has one goal: go out with a bang.
“This one’s special,” Sherrock teased during her press conference, flashing that signature confident grin. “It’s not just another tournament. It’s my goodbye… for now.”
And what a goodbye it promises to be.
The Blackpool crowd is already buzzing with anticipation. There’s a palpable sense that something electric is brewing. Whether it’s her pinpoint finishes, dramatic comebacks, or that unmatched swagger, Sherrock knows how to deliver when the lights are brightest.
Insiders say she’s been training harder than ever — fine-tuning her form, mentally zoning in, and even cutting back on social distractions to stay razor-focused. “She wants this title more than anything,” said one coach. “It’s about ending this chapter on her own terms.”
Her rivals? Not thrilled.
Reigning champ Beau Greaves and rising phenom Mikuru Suzuki are both gunning for the same prize. But Sherrock’s name still rings loudest. As one fan put it: “You can’t spell ‘Matchplay drama’ without Fallon.”
But why the break?
Sherrock hasn’t revealed all the details, only hinting at “new priorities” and the need to “recharge.” Some speculate it’s about motherhood. Others think a media career or pundit gig is in the cards. Whatever the reason, it’s clear she’s stepping away on her terms — not because she’s done, but because she’s earned the right to pause.
So yes, 2026 might be Sherrock-less — but 2025? It’s her victory lap.
One last roar from the crowd. One final stroll to the stage. One more chance to light up the Winter Gardens.
Because legends don’t fade. They take a bow, then rewrite the rules all over again.
Fallon Sherrock’s not done. She’s just hitting the bullseye one more time before the curtain falls. 🎯
