    Dear Luke,

    We've been watching you... Not in a weird way, but on TV; throwing darts and smashing the trebles more often than a night out on the Magaluf strip (hard luck on missing the Big Fish by the way.)

    We're writing to you to, firstly, wish you luck in tonight's semi-final against Rob Cross (boo!) BUT, if you don't win, us lot here at On the Beach, the home of package holidays, have a proposition for you...

    You may have heard that we've got more holidays to Turkey than you can shake a beach towel at. In fact, we're the Kings of Turkey, and we heard on the grapevine that you're the King of Kebabs.



    So, if you don't win the World Darts Championship, we'd love to offer you a job in the home of kebabs: Turkey. Our offer consists of you becoming our 'Top Kebab Taste Tester' and yes, that is the official title.

    We'll sort the whole thing, send you on holiday and take you to our top Turkish hotels - let someone else worry about flights and check-outs for once.

    While you're over there, you'll get to try every hotels' kebab offering, sample their poolside dart boards and report back to us. A job almost as simple as hitting a 180. For you, anyway.

    Look at it this way, it's a free holiday for as long as you want, travelling around doing the two things you love, throwing darts and eating kebabs. What more could you want?



    Anyway, offer's there if you want it. Think about it...


    Darts career? Or living the life in Turkey? I know which one I'd pick.

    We await your reply.

    Caspar
    Shalom

    Three-time world champion Michael van Gerwen beat teenager Luke Littler 8-6 to win the Dutch Darts Masters.
    Littler, 17, beat Van Gerwen to win his first PDC senior title at the Bahrain Masters last week but was unable to make it back-to-back titles.
    Both players exchanged early breaks before a run of holds meant the game was level at 6-6 in a best-of-15 tie.
    Van Gerwen then held, before taking out 85 to win his home World Series event for the first time.
    Littler outscored Van Gerwen to average 106.71 compared to 100.59, but the Dutchman's checkout percentage of 66.7 left his opponent with very few opportunities.







    "This is what people like to watch," Van Gerwen told ITV.

    Today's outrage

    Transgender darts player Noa-Lynn van Leuven has sparked outrage after winning the PDC Women's Series - prompting two of her female team mates to resign and tennis ace Martina Navratilova to say women have the 'short end of the stick'.

    The victory comes just a week after she made history by becoming the first trans woman to win a PDC Tour event on the Challenge Tour in Hildesheim, Germany.


    Van Leuven defeated Fallon Sherrock in the semi-final before besting Ireland's Katie Sheldon 5-2 to claim £2,000 in prize money

    Meanwhile, two of Van Leuven's Dutch compatriots have left their national team in protest following Saturday's win. Anca Zijlstra revealed she was stepping away 'with pain in my heart' - before world number two Aileen de Graaf quit hours later in vowing to no longer represent the Netherlands.

    Zijlstra, 50, wrote on Facebook: 'That moment when you're embarrassed to come out for the Dutch team, because a biological man is playing on the women's team, it's time to go."

    It sounds like they became best friends.

    Or did some sort of sex act that Mendy would know about.


    Are people not allowed to say beat anymore?

    It sounds pretty Irish I reckon

    Ireland won't be playing in the Euros this year because they were bested by Norway, Scotland and Armenia

    Edmond will be busy besting his meat
