The darts superstar, from Perth, contracted Covid-19 in 2020 and battled with diabetes, however, a cause of death has not yet been confirmed.
Anderson took the darts world by storm in December 2013 after producing a nine-dart finish at the televised World Championship last year.
The player was a regular competitor at Alexandra Palace every Christmas making seven appearances and winning six contests on the PDC’s most prestigious stage.
And he would later reach the quarter-finals of the UK Open in 2016 and the European Championship semis in 2017.
The much-loved darts ace’s passing came just a month after the death of darts icon Andy ‘the Viking’ Fordham.
The London-born star, who enjoyed a successful career in the sport, won the BDO World Darts Championship in 2004.
