An ever present at the World Cup, Australia had their best performance in 2012 when they reached the final against England. The match went all the way, being decided by a sudden death leg where all four players had darts at double before Adrian Lewis reigned in victory for England.[2] But in 2022, their 10 year agony came to an end when Damon Heta and Simon Whitlock beat Wales in the final to become the 5th different nation to win the trophy.
