It's a historically male-dominated sport, and this win is a marker of a broader social movement around gender and gender equality. I don't view this any differently than recognizing racial breakthroughs in sports. One could question whether "firsts" should be cared about at all in any context, but I think that is a different problem.

I feel this would be a whole lot more impressive if we were talking about javelin and not darts...

Not really - you could just lean forward and push the javelin in to the board.... ;-)

There isn't room for three in the treble 20.

Nah it's not. It's someone winning at a sport.
