I have to admit I'm not surprised that there are abuses. Any class has to be a continuum and if you are at the bottom end of that continuum, there must be temptation to get into the class below where presumably you would be at the top end.

However, I am surprised that people would go to such extremes as to have surgery to make their disablement worse.

Once darts is accepted as an Olympic sport, that class will be the default for inclusion!
