Darts Legends #24: Larry Butler

The Weekly Dartscast

Our Darts Legends series returns with special guest the 1994 World Matchplay champion Larry Butler!

Listen to Larry talk through his career from the early beginnings to making his Lakeside debut in 1992, playing in the first WDC (now PDC) World Championship and becoming the inaugural World Matchplay champion in 1994. Larry looks back on that success in Blackpool 30 years ago this summer, being a 200-1 pre-tournament outsider and beating the top seed Dennis Priestley in the final, as well as his long break from the game, finding his love for darts and making another major final at the BDO World Masters. Enjoy!
