Ross Smith expressed his belief that "karma" will ultimately catch up with Mensur Suljovic following a heated encounter during the Swiss Darts Trophy. The incident unfolded in the third round on Sunday afternoon, where the two players faced a tense last-leg decider, tied at 5-5 in their best-of-11-legs match.

As Smith prepared to throw for victory with two match darts at double 18, Suljovic provoked the crowd to boo, which contributed to Smith missing his target. Seizing the opportunity, Suljovic managed to secure the win with a double 10, leaving Smith frustrated by the unsportsmanlike behavior.

After the match, Smith took to social media to share his thoughts:

I don't blame Mensur for me losing that game. I missed two match darts. Simple as that. It's impossible for me to know what he's doing behind my back when I'm throwing apart from the crowd's response. If he wants to be an absolute helmet that's on him - karma will come around.

This isn't the first time Suljovic has been at the center of controversy. Last December, he faced scrutiny during a World Championship match against Joe Cullen, who accused him of slowing the game to gain an advantage. Suljovic defended his actions, insisting he never intends to provoke anyone, stating, "I like my game - I never do it to be a villain."

The incident has sparked discussions on sportsmanship in darts, highlighting the intensity and psychological tactics involved in the sport.
