Golfer Rory McIlroy has been voted BBC Sports Personality of the Year 2025 after clinching the career Grand Slam and playing a key role in Europe's Ryder Cup win.But all the while, an unlikely rival has been creating a bigger buzz. The World Darts Championship is under way - and the buzz at Alexandra Palace is not only coming from the fans in fancy dress or the action on the oche.Instead, the affectionately known 'Ally Pally wasp' is back in the spotlight.Eagle-eyed supporters have spotted them landing on players, disrupting throws, and even gatecrashing post-match interviews.Defending champion Luke Littler was forced to take evasive action to avoid a sting after his first-round victory.One wasp got a little too close to the action when it was struck by Nitin Kumar's dart mid-flight.It got to the point that Jurjen van der Velde even brought bug spray on stage before his first-round tie against Danny Noppert.Its most notorious moment came in 2023 when Ross Smith was stung three times while on stage after his round three win.And the wasp is multi talented - also making appearances at top flight snooker.So maybe 2025 has come too early for the Ally Pally wasp to win Sport Personality of the year - but there's always 2026...
