After Europe, North America, Australia and Africa, the WDF World Cup will also conquer Asia for the first time in 2011. Kuala Lumpur in Malaysia is the setting for the thirteenth edition of this tournament. It will be played from September 26 to 29.

With 27 participating countries in the ladies, 26 in the men and seven in the youth the tournament is slightly less visited than the previous editions, but the tournament is still a resounding success. Thailand makes its debut in 2001 at a WDF World Cup.

The Dutch team proves to be unbeatable in Kuala Lumpur. After winning the pairs tournament, they play against each other in the singles final. Mieke de Boer and Francis Hoenselaar make it a nervous game, it turns out to be difficult to play against each other if you have been together for a week. Ultimately, it is the most experienced of the two who takes the title. Hoenselaar beats De Boer 4-2.

Defending champion Trina Gulliver will reach the last 16 this year where veteran Anne Kirk beats her. Kirk eventually takes a bronze medal after losing to Hoenselaar in the semi-finals. The last medal goes to the Australia’s Natalie Carter. With six different nationalities in the quarterfinals without a lady from England or Wales, it says something about the globalization of women's darts.

Francis Hoenselaar is the second Dutch lady to take the title after Valerie Maytum. Maytum did this in 1987 in Copenhagen. Hoenselaar had been in the final twice before, but in both 1995 and 1999 she had to settle for silver.
