Fallon Sherrock's five-year-old son can suddenly enjoy school now his mum has become one of the most talked about sportswomen in the country.

Sherrock has burst onto the scene following her groundbreaking exploits at the PDC World Championship in December.

The 25-year-old from Milton Keynes became the first woman to ever win a game at the prestigious Alexandra Palace tournament before going on to oust 11th-seed Mensur Suljovic.

It catapulted her into worldwide fame – gaining support from Hollywood A-listers – and changed her life forever as she has turned her back on a career as a mobile hairdresser.

"If we could play each other, that would be great in itself. Everyone wants to see that I think and if we do that would be great entertainment for everyone.

"It is great to have another lady because it just proves that us women can compete against the men. It just gives us more opportunities now.

"The sky is the limit now, us women are showing that we can beat men and hopefully it will open more doors.

"She is just as good as me and she deserves everything she gets. If I could share these opportunities, I would."
