Career

[edit | edit source]

Lawrie has had an interest in playing darts since he was a toddler and started playing more regularly during the COVID-19 lockdown; he cites Scottish world champion Gary Anderson as his inspiration.[1][7]

In December 2023, aged 13, Lawrie represented Scotland at the Junior Darts Corporation's JDC World Cup of Darts. He hit the winning double as Scotland beat Ireland 4–0 in the final.[8] In the semi-finals of the tournament, Scotland defeated an England team that contained future world champion Luke Littler.[1] In February 2024, Lawrie won three of the first four JDC Foundation Tour events of the year.[3]

In May 2025, he became the first Scottish player to win a JDC Advanced Tour event.[9] In July, Lawrie won the WDF Europe Youth Cup singles tournament and was part of Scotland's winning youth team.[10] Lawrie won his first two senior WDF titles in September, winning both the Welsh and British Open.[11][12][13][14] In October, he won the World Masters and World Open youth titles.[15] He then won his third senior WDF title, the Irish Classic, to become the youngest player to win three senior WDF titles. Aged 15 years and 4 days old, he beat the previous record that was held by Luke Littler.[16] At the end of November, Lawrie reached the 2025 JDC World Darts Championship final.[17]

At the 2025 WDF World Darts Championship, Lawrie became the youngest player to compete in a senior event in the tournament's history, winning his opening match 3–0 against Tomoya Maruyama.[18][19] He went on to reach the final by defeating Jenson Walker 5–2 in the semi-finals, with Walker being the first player to win sets against Lawrie during the tournament.[20] Lawrie took a 3–0 lead in the final before losing 6–3 to Jimmy van Schie. He won his first WDF World Youth Championship by defeating Florian Preis 4–2 in the youth final.[21][22] On 20 December 2025 at Alexandra Palace, Lawrie won the JDC World Championship by defeating Kaya Baysal 5–2.[23]
