In front of the German crowd during today’s match at the German Darts Grand Prix it is safe to say Scott Williams isn’t their favourite. However it is the darts player who can expect a fine after he just did this in front of the camera.
“It’s fair to say he’s not a favourite of the fans here in Munich”
Perfectly timed commentary there and an almost perfect response to the helmet in the crowd from Scott Williams, love it 😂 pic.twitter.com/PTptOxccl9

This isn’t the first time the Englishman has landed himself in hot water. One of the most talked-about controversies occurred during the 2023 World Darts Championship. After defeating German player Martin Schindler, Williams made a provocative remark: “We won two world wars and one World Cup.” The comment sparked outrage, especially among German fans, and prompted an on-air apology from Sky Sports. Williams later admitted the remark was “a bit silly” and insisted it wasn’t meant as a personal attack.
He’s no stranger to fines either, and today’s incident will likely add another to the list. Disciplinary matters like these are typically handled by the DRA, an organization not known for its sense of humor.

Even if the crowd’s behavior played a role in provoking him, that’s unlikely to serve as a valid defense. The PDC emphasizes professionalism and expects its players to uphold that standard—especially given the lucrative rewards on offer.
Williams’ flair on stage has drawn both praise and criticism. He’s known for attempting stunts like the ‘no-look 180,’ where he turns away from the dartboard after his final throw. While some fans find it entertaining, others have called it “cringe” and accused him of showboating. In another memorable moment during the World Championship, he swatted at a wasp on stage with a theatrical karate-style move, earning a mix of laughter and bewilderment from the crowd.
