Overview
- On his World Championship debut, Munyua recovered from two sets down to beat No. 18 seed Mike De Decker 3-2 at Alexandra Palace.
- He produced a decisive 135 checkout on outer bull–treble 20–bull in the final set, after an earlier perfect six-dart start and notable miscounts.
- The PDC confirmed Munyua killed the recurring Ally Pally wasp during the match and put it in his pocket.
- A full-time veterinarian on his first trip outside Africa, Munyua qualified via the African Darts Group and used fellow pro Cam Crabtree’s darts.
- He is guaranteed at least £25,000 and will face Kevin Doets or Matthew Dennant next, while De Decker criticized booing from the crowd on Instagram.
