US EditionSherrock to Take a Break From Darts in 2026
- Fallon Sherrock, a 30-year-old darts player known for breaking gender barriers, plans to take a break from competition in 2026 due to health reasons.
- Since 2014, following the birth of her son, she has faced kidney-related health challenges that have diminished her energy, endurance, and capacity to train and compete at her best.
- Sherrock recently withdrew from some exhibitions and limited her tournament participation, expressing difficulty maintaining her usual practice routines and competitive form.
- She admitted that currently she is only playing at a "B-game" level because she is unable to dedicate a few hours each day to practicing at home.
- Sherrock aims to prioritise her health during the break and hopes to return stronger by 2027, believing "the sky is the limit" after rest.
