15-year-old Mitchell Lawrie hit a nine-darter on the JDC Advanced Tour after recently being crowned the youngest ever WDF world no 1.

The teenager, who is tipped to be the hottest young darts sensation since Luke Littler, pinned a perfect leg to beat Ethan Hawden 4-1 , averaging 103 in his opening match of a day which saw him claim an event win.

Lawrie had previously secured the world no 1 ranking last weekend after winning both the Slovak Open and the Slovak masters, silver-ranked events on the WDF circuit, having previously claimed the Scottish Classic title earlier this season.
