Darts prodigy, 16, who broke Luke Littler’s record wins first high-profile senior event but left ‘annoyed’ at own team

ARCHIE SELF capped the week of his young life off on Halloween by winning his first high-profile senior darts event. And then the 16-year-old was amazed by how his name is in contention with the bookmakers for next month’s PDC World Darts Championship. On Saturday night, the Berkshire teenager was crowned the Series 15 champion of the MODUS Super Series in Portsmouth following a 4-2 victory over Andy Baetens in the final. It followed his nine-darter last Wednesday in the group stage of the competition – he is the youngest person to achieve a perfect leg live on British TV.
