Ritchie Edhouse admits he was 'NAIVE' after major win and would 'CHANGE' things if he could
Published 3 July 2026
Madhouse shocked the sport with European Championship glory in 2024 but failed to qualify for the tournament 12 months later.
"I think if I had the time over again I would change. I took it too easy afterwards [winning the European Championship].
"I thought because I won that, I was obviously playing well with some of the numbers I hit, and I probably did for that 2025 season took it too easy.
"I probably should've put more work in, I probably slacked off and that's why I'm trying to dig back in now.
"I was just being naive really I suppose and just thought I'd been there and done it."
Ritchie Edhouse was speaking at Operation Bullseye presented by Defence Darts, a charity event raising money for military mental health charities.
