Cameron Menzies was back on the big stage at the UK Open Darts Championship this weekend and once again managed to create a striking moment during his match.
Many fans still remember the table incident involving the Scotsman at the PDC World Darts Championship earlier this season, and this time Menzies once again caught the attention of viewers with his unusual behaviour.

The 35-year-old is known for his unpredictable reactions during matches, and spectators were once again left puzzled by what exactly he was doing on stage. The moment occurred during his last-64 clash with fellow Scotsman Peter Wright.
Despite the unusual scenes, Menzies was unable to turn the match in his favour. Wright proved too strong and secured a 10–6 victory to advance to the last 32 of the tournament.
However, Wright’s run came to an end in the next round. Dutchman Danny Noppert defeated him convincingly 10–2 to book his place in the quarter-finals.
Noppert is now the only remaining Dutch player in the tournament, after Michael van Gerwen was eliminated on Saturday evening. James Wade beat Van Gerwen 10–3 despite the Dutchman averaging an impressive 100.45.
Wade himself produced a remarkable performance, finishing the match with an average of 105.83 — a level rarely associated with “The Machine”, who is traditionally known for hovering around the 95 mark while doing just enough to defeat his opponents.
Quarter-finals set for Sunday
Sunday afternoon’s quarter-finals will feature Krzysztof Ratajski, Josh Rock, James Wade, Rob Cross, Luke Littler, Danny Noppert, Jonny Clayton and Gerwyn Price.
Later on Sunday evening the semi-finals and the final will take place, when it will become clear whether reigning champion Luke Littler can successfully defend his title or if the tournament will crown a new winner.
