Ninth seed Damon Heta hit a nine-darter but was knocked out by Englishman Luke Woodhouse in the third round of the PDC World Championship.
The Australian celebrated wildly after hitting double 12 to complete the perfect leg – with Woodhouse raising his opponent’s arm as a lively crowd roared their approval – on his way to winning the second set.
It is the second nine-darter of this year’s tournament after Dutchman Christian Kist achieved the feat in the second round.
Kist also lost the match and nine of the 16 players to make a nine-dart finish at Alexandra Palace have gone on to lose the match.
