Darts star makes “cheating” claim following controversial PDC World Championship exit
- On Dec 21, 2025, Joe Cullen accused Mensur Suljovic of 'cheating' following his second-round loss at the Paddy Power World Darts Championship at Alexandra Palace, London.
- Mensur Suljovic, known for slow play, upset 32 seed Joe Cullen on the oche, prompting Cullen to call the conduct 'not darts' and accuse it of 'cheating' on social media.
- Cullen opened by winning the first set without dropping a leg, missed a crucial double nine to level the match, and Suljovic secured victory with a double 10 checkout.
- Exchanging words after the match, the pair clashed and Cullen stared at Suljovic as he left Alexandra Palace, then criticised his conduct in social media posts.
- Suljovic responded after the match by saying 'I don't know, what's his problem?' and insisted he gave Cullen missed doubles, while Cullen wrote 'If that's darts, I don't want no part of it!' on social media.
