Anderson returned to his home city of Perth at the start of 2020, opting to remain in Australia ahead of the birth of his second child.<\/p>\n
He relinquished his PDC Tour Card earlier this year.<\/p>\n
"We send our condolences and best wishes to Kyle's family and friends at this terribly sad time, particularly his wife and children," said PDC president Barry Hearn.<\/p>\n

"Kyle's achievements in his short-lived career were outstanding, notably his Auckland Darts Masters win, and a fitting reward for the sacrifices he made to follow his dream.<\/p>\n
"He was a popular player on the tour and his talent and dedication made him an inspiration to other players around the world."<\/p>\n
The Professional Darts Players Association tweeted: "So sad to wake up to the news today that Kyle Anderson has passed away, our sincere condolences to all his family and friends. He will be sadly missed."<\/p>\n
