- He alleged deliberate slow play, prolonged celebrations after legs, and a dismissive wave intended to influence him.
- Referee Kirk Bevins warned Suljovic during the match, and there has been no further disciplinary action from the PDC.
- Despite a three-dart average of 81.95, Suljovic defeated Cullen 3–1, a loss Cullen said he should have avoided.
- Suljovic rejected the accusation and received public support from world champion Luke Littler, whom he is scheduled to face in the third round.
