Fifteen-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.
Lawrie made headlines in December last year when he became the first teenager in history to reach the WDF World Championship final, only dropping one set in his previous matches.
He claimed the JDC world title at Alexandra Palace in the same month, to add to the three senior titles - the British Open, Irish Classic, and Welsh Open - that Lawrie had already won in 2025.
The Scot is the youngest player to ever win three senior titles, and has already added three more titles this season to claim his world No 1 ranking.
Lawrie is ranked above No 2 Jenson Walker, another rising talent at amateur level, as well as World Darts Championship fan favourite Leonard Gates.
World champion Luke Littler congratulated Lawrie on his first senior title in December and understands why comparisons are being drawn between the two young darting superstars.
"He's a very, very good player at such a young age like myself. Obviously, I think about my record for winning a WDF Open," Littler said.
"So that's another one he has taken off me but he's a very good player.
"It is crazy. He's got to wait years for the development tour.
"But for now, he's just got to keep at it because he's got to wait.
"But there's plenty of opportunities out there for now for tournaments to go and win."
So, what is Littler's advice for Lawrie? He believes he just needs to keep going, taking his opportunities, and making sure his game is the best it can be for when he has the chance to try and join the Development Tour at 16 years of age.
"You have just got to keep your head down. You still have got to keep going," he added.
"Because I think at 14, 15, I was like 'oh it's another year till I can go on the Development Tour'.
"He's definitely thinking the same the way he's been playing. So just keep his head down and yeah you'll be on Tour."
