Cameron Menzies lost his head after defeat in the opening round of the World Darts Championship to Charlie Manby, repeatedly punching his table before being asked to leave the stage.
The Scot was ahead at 1-0 and 2-1 in sets, but the 20-year-old debutant kept fighting back and then triumphed in a deciding set to win 3-2 and progress to the second round at Alexandra Palace.
Menzies was absolutely furious in defeat and as Manby came to shake his hand the 36-year-old was throwing uppercuts at his drinks table.
The youngster didn’t really know what to do as the more experienced man completely lost his head.
After the violent outburst, Menzies did go to shake his opponent’s hand and give him a hug, but the referee stepped in and asked him to leave the stage.
Menzies did raise a hand in apology and gestured towards the crowd, seemingly regretting his reaction quickly afterwards.
Glen Durrant, on commentary for the next game between David Cameron and Mensur Suljovic, said on Sky Sports: ‘It wasn’t the ending we all want to see.
