Christian Kist completed what the BBC called ‘a remarkable Lakeside debut’ by winning the BDO world darts title on Sunday.

Kist, 25, entered the tournamant as a ranked outsider and beat Tony O’Shea 7-5 to win the £100,000 (€120,000) prize. According to the BBC, this is 50 times his career earnings to date.
Kist, a road builder by trade, is the third Dutchman to take the title. Raymond van Barneveld won in 1998, 1999, 2003 and 2005, while Jelle Klassen was champion in 2006.
