Is darts a sport? Or just a game? I hear about these tournaments and I went to one I got my kicked in the first round by a russian named anastasia debromyslova and I wonder if it's just a game who would commit to practicing 4 hours a day

Oh it's definitely a sport... and if you're really good at it (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Professional_Darts_Championship) you can earn a lot of money!

Incidentally, one of the best players in the world at the moment is a Canadian, nicknamed Darth Maple (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Part)!

Good luck with your training though!

Are the men tougher to beat at darts then the women? Because I see on TV james wade and adrian lewis play and james wade just dominated
