Mark Webster: Former world darts champion and broadcaster reveals rare cancer diagnosis

Published

Former world darts champion and broadcaster Mark Webster has been diagnosed with a rare form of blood cancer.

The 42-year-old, from St Asaph in north Wales, was diagnosed with hairy cell leukaemia in January and has revealed he is having chemotherapy.

“It sounds bad when you say leukaemia but…it’s got a good prognosis, 95% of cases are successful,” Webster said in an interview on Darts World’s YouTube channel.

“I will be put into some sort of remission at some point but just the recovery at the minute is not going to plan in terms of the speed of it.”

The 2008 BDO world champion has been absent from television coverage since February but hopes to be back soon.

“In myself I feel fine and I would love to go back to work, but they don’t like the environment I work in,” added Webster on the advice from his medical team.

“At the minute it’s a case of doing as I’m told and being patient. It’s frustrating because I like to be busy, but hopefully it won’t be too much longer.”
