Every sport has that one figure who turns it upside down — the trailblazer, the disruptor, the one who makes headlines even when they’re not trying. In darts, that person is Fallon Sherrock. And let’s be honest, she didn’t just break into the boys’ club… she kicked the door clean off its hinges.
The moment that changed everything? December 2019. Fallon became the first woman to beat a man at the PDC World Darts Championship. Not just one man — she stormed past Ted Evetts and then shook the darting world to its core by stunning Mensur Suljović. In a sport dominated by men, she instantly became “The Queen of the Palace.” Overnight, darts had its new superstar.
But Fallon’s story isn’t just about that one magical run. What makes her fascinating is how she’s kept the spotlight since. She’s collected Women’s Series titles, played in high-profile exhibitions, and pushed her way into major televised events. Every time she throws, she’s not just playing a game — she’s representing every woman who ever wanted a place on that stage.
Of course, the journey hasn’t been smooth. Critics have questioned her consistency, trolls have targeted her online, and the pressure of being the sport’s female trailblazer is immense. But Fallon? She thrives on it. She’s got that cheeky grin, that unflappable confidence, and that uncanny ability to silence doubters with a single dart. It’s part of her charm, and part of why she’s adored by fans worldwide.
And she’s not just winning matches — she’s changing the narrative. Thanks to Fallon, more women are picking up darts than ever before. She’s opened doors, inspired a new generation, and made it impossible to ignore the rise of women in the game.
Financially, too, Fallon has cashed in on her stardom. Sponsorships, TV spots, and global exhibitions have turned her into one of the most marketable faces in darts. She’s proof that in this sport, charisma and talent combined can pay off big.
So what’s next? Whether she’s fighting for Women’s Series glory, dazzling crowds at Ally Pally, or sparking debates about the future of women’s darts, one thing’s for sure — Fallon Sherrock isn’t done rewriting history. She’s not just the Queen of the Palace; she’s the queen of the conversation.
And in darts, that throne is hers until she decides otherwise.
