I HAD TO BUZZ OFF

ADRIAN LEWIS has broken cover to reveal the burnout behind his shock decision to step away from the oche, saying his career was going "stale" and "the buzz wasn't there".

Two-time world darts champion Lewis, 38, rocked the circuit in April when he announced he was taking an indefinite break from the PDC.

Jaded 'Jackpot, who famously earned his nickname from a big win on a slot machine in Las Vegas, has not set any date on making a comeback.

But he looks fitter after shedding nearly 4st by walking up to 10 miles a day near his Cheshire home, insisting: "I'm not finished. There's another chapter to be written."
