Dawson Murschell is one of the three Canadian Tour Card holders on the PDC circuit this year. Compatriots John Part and John Norman Jr. managed to win a Tour Card at the Q-School last year.

The 22-year-old Murschell won his Tour Card at the four-day event in Wigan in mid-January. 'Awesome Dawson' also made a name for himself last year by winning James Wade in Las Vegas.
The Canadian then decided to work on his career. Murschell made the switch to the United Kingdom and will be on the PDC circuit for the next two years. He already announced in the footsteps of his famous compatriot Part, who in the past won three world titles.
“Q School was very tough, the standard now is just incredible. The PDC Development and Challenge Tours are creating so many good young players.
“I think the amount of games you play produces better mental strength and consistency which brings you on as a dart player so much quicker.
“That’s why perhaps there are so many players coming through now and beating the so-called bigger names, I don’t think anyone is frightened of playing anyone.
“I was obviously delighted to get through in Wigan. It came down to the last day and I needed to win two matches and when I did that I did a few fist pumps but it was great to go on and win.
“The biggest difference now is my timing. I think there’s something in the Canadian blood about being able to produce good scores or finishes at the right time.
