What has replaced the BDO?

Well, to put it simply, the BDO no longer functions. The Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) was formed after a split from the British Darts Organisation (BDO) in the early '90s, and many of the game's top players went along with the new PDC tour with its own world championship.

For years, the BDO World Championship would open up each calendar year, following in the footsteps, hot on the heels, of the PDC tournament, which stands toe-to-toe with the glitz and glam of Premier League football in December. The PDC World Darts Championship is over with Peter Wright crowned champion once again, but fans won't be treated to another traditional year-opening darts tournament. However, the BDO tournament won't go ahead in 2022, leaving darts fans at a loss as to how to spend their January evenings. We round up what happened to the BDO World Darts Championship and why it won't feature on the sporting calendar in 2022 and beyond.

Why is there no BDO World Darts Championship 2022?

Well, to put it simply, the BDO no longer functions.

The Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) was formed after a split from the British Darts Organisation (BDO) in the early '90s, and many of the game's top players went along with the new PDC tour with its own world championship. This was the first nudge of the snowball down the hill for the BDO, as they never recovered from the divide. The World Darts Federation demoted the BDO to associate member status in 2019 following irregularities at the Masters event that year. Players complained of a venue that was too small, while a number of players weren't registered for the event without knowing they had to be. Fake names were also used in the draw, leading to a redraw, culminating in truly farcical scenes and a heated meeting between the top-seeded players and organisation officials. The BDO simply couldn't recover from the blows to its reputation in recent years.

The 2020 tournament was the last to be played, but wasn't without its own controversy. The lack of a tournament sponsor meant prize money had to be slashed in the run-up to the competition, and many players dropped out while one-time large crowds dwindled to minimal levels.

In September 2020, the BDO went into liquidation and the 2021 was officially scrapped. Last year was the first without a BDO World Darts Championship since 1978. Darts fans will still be able to soak up many former BDO alumni strutting their stuff, including one of their most recent top talents Glen Durrant, in the PDC ranks, but the BDO is no more.

The dangers of darts are apparent: it's a game of throwing sharp, tiny objects that's mostly played by — let's be frank here — folks in bars. Few of us know much more about it, but Mark Dudbridge, 38, makes his living by tossing the dart. (His biggest single-tournament take: $47,000.) The World Masters Champion, Ireland Open Champion, and World Championship Finalist, who hails from Bristol, England, says that with just a few tweaks to your grip and throwing motion — along with some gear upgrades for an added edge — you can enhance your game dramatically, whether you're playing at home or away. Even so, we'd recommend keeping the day job.

1. Grip it Lightly

For control, put your thumb and first finger on the back of the dart while resting the middle finger on the point. "Fewer fingers means less chance of something going wrong," says Dudbridge.

2. Point Your Toe at the Target

Make your hand follow a straight line from toe to eye, with your biceps horizontal and forearm perpendicular. "You can lean over the line, as long as you're stable," he says.

3. Have a Strong Follow-Through

"Your arm should accelerate and stay straight, with a release point about two-thirds of the way into the throw," Dudbridge says. Your hand should finish pointing directly at the target.

4. The Board

Cheap boards have thick, round wires, which is why Dudbridge's favorite dartboard — the one he uses on tour — is the Unicorn Eclipse Pro: "It has very thin wires, causing fewer bounce-outs" ($47; madondarts.co.uk).

5. The Dart

Dudbridge recommends the Harrows Atlantis 95 percent Tungsten, 25 gram. Its exaggerated wings add stability and make for a straighter flight ($45; roksportdarts.co.uk/). For access to exclusive gear videos, celebrity interviews, and more, subscribe on YouTube!
