In a massive turn of events, Fallon Sherrock was left with no other choice but to lament as Ricky Evans beat her in the first round of the PDC World Championships held at the Ally Pally.

Fallon Sherrock's defeat

It was a huge opportunity missed by the first lady of the oche as Ricky Evans defeated her in the first round of the PDC World Championships at Ally Pally. Sherrock's 3-1 defeat and her exit from the Cazoo PDC World Championship is a closed chapter for another year, followed by Lisa Ashton and Beau Greaves' defeats around the weekend.

On this, Evans commented that he was well aware that the round would be challenging, but it turned out to be more difficult than her expectations. Evans admitted that Sherrock was a better player in the darts game, but he could get away with it. People constantly cheered for the lady-darts players considering how good she was at the game, but this time, she missed a lot of doubles, and Evans took his chance.
