Mitchell lands BDO Darts title glory

Scott Mitchell held his nerve to land his first BDO World Championship crown with a nail-biting 7-6 win over Martin Adams on Sunday night.

The 44-year-old had only won two matches on his previous five visits to the Lakeside going into this year’s tournament, but against a three-time champion he stayed calm at the death to win the £100,000 top prize.
