Victory for Yorkshire bricklayer Charlie Manby in the first round of the PDC World Darts Championship provoked a furious reaction from his opponent, Cameron Menzies.

After suffering a 3-2 defeat to the unseeded 20-year-old debutant, No 24 seed Menzies proceeded to punch the table on stage at the Alexandra Palace.

‘Champagne Charlie’ as he is known won a nerve-jangling final leg on double one to clinch the match and send Menzies into a rage.

Ranked 166 by the PDC (Professional Darts Corporation), Manby – a bricklayer by trade who comes from between Huddersfield and Wakefield – qualified for his first shot at world glory through a fourth-placed finish on the organisation’s Development Tour.
