  • Noa-Lynn van Leuven will become the first transgender player to compete at the World Darts Championship on Tuesday, although she wants her arrows alone to be the story. The 28-year-old booked her spot at Alexandra Palace thanks to her performances in the Women's Series and takes on Kevin Doets in her opening round contest.

Noa Lynn van Leuven, a 25-year-old Dutch darts player, is set to make history as the first transgender woman to compete in the World Darts Championship. Her journey to this point has been marked by significant personal and professional challenges. Initially, she faced a ban from the Dutch Darts Federation due to her transgender identity, which was later overturned after she transitioned. Van Leuven has since climbed the ranks, securing her spot in the championship through her performance in the PDC Women's Series, where she finished in the top eight. Her debut at the Alexandra Palace not only highlights her skill but also her resilience, as she has navigated through discrimination and personal struggles to reach this pinnacle of the sport. Her participation is seen as a step forward for inclusivity in darts, inspiring others in the community.
