Mensur Suljovic's crowd incitement during his match against Ross Smith and his alleged sexist comments in his on-stage interview regarding the incident have been referred to the Darts Regulation Authority.

The Austrian encouraged the crowd to boo the Englishman during a last-leg decider in their third-round clash at the Swiss Darts Trophy on Sunday afternoon.

He was later asked about the incident in an on-stage interview and used an allegedly sexist comment to describe how Smith reacted.
