Darts
Hearn is the chairman of the Professional Darts Corporation, one of darts' two governing bodies, the sport having been split since the world's leading players left the British Darts Organisation in 1992. He has made several attempts to buy out the rival body, which would reunify the game, but has been unsuccessful.

the shallows, darts to shore
to stab—”

the pains of love; the darts that wound are steeped in
much poison.”
