Damon Heta left the crowd at Alexandra Palace in awe with an incredible nine-darter.
His opponent, Luke Woodhouse, seemed to genuinely admire the remarkable accomplishment.
After a brief Christmas break, Heta and Woodhouse continued their battle in the PDC World Darts Championship.
The Australian quickly gave the excited fans a reason to cheer.
Even though he lost the first set to Woodhouse, Heta made a remarkable comeback.
This nine-darter was only the second one recorded in this year’s tournament so far.
Christian Kist was the first player to reach this achievement last week.
This year, players have a new motivation to hit a nine-darter.

Additionally, £60,000 will be donated to charity every time a nine-darter is achieved, alongside a cash prize for a fortunate fan in attendance at the match.
The fan who won the cash prize after Kist’s nine-darter last week was in disbelief when chosen, exclaiming, “this can’t be real.”
Rob Cross was caught making an inappropriate gesture live on TV during the World Darts Championship, surprising viewers.
