Cameron Menzies ‘came close to quitting darts’ after table-punching injury

Menzies had earlier apologised for losing his temper at the World Championships.

saying it was a difficult time following the death of his uncle.

But the incident left him wondering about his future in the sport.

“It was great to win [today]. To be honest, I was very close to passing out this weekend. Right now I’m not able to enjoy it.”

The 36-year-old said surgeons have told him he is lucky he has not ruptured any nerves or tendons but that he should make a slow recovery after further treatment.

He said, “I couldn’t feel my fingers for six weeks. I had to undergo surgery. I still have to go through hand treatments and trauma.”

“I’ve made a big mistake in my life. You can see the scars.”

“He said [the feeling] will be back, but I’ll have to live with the reputation of being a table puncher. This is not a proud moment of my life.

“We all make mistakes. Unfortunately, I made a big mistake, and I have to admit it.”
