The opponent who knocked Kiwi Bernie Smith out of the darts world championships yesterday has been accused of cheating.
Englishman Justin Pipe defeated the Christchurch plasterer 3-2 in yesterday's first round match-up. Smith come within millimetres of reaching the second round but missed an attempt for double 10.
However Pipe was seen coughing in the background during Smith's attempt, which has led to accusations of cheating by Sky Sports commentator Wayne Mardle.
After the match Mardle said: "It looks absolutely despicable behaviour by a professional darts player". It then continued his thoughts on social media.
