So far, the 'African Warrior' has yet to perform to his best in
PDC events. Petersen puts this down to a recent . "Because I changed my throw 14 or 15 months ago, it has probably taken my game back a few steps," he told . Africa's number one player has set his sights on a World Championship return. But aside from that, he has plenty of smaller targets. "It's my main goal [to reach the Ally Pally]. I want to progress up the rankings. "The back end of the year is quite crammed with majors. For me, I'd like to make three of those majors," he said. Another route to a big televised event is the
European Tour. Though Petersen hasn't succeeded on that side of the game yet, he still has time. "I've not qualified for the European [Tour] just yet this year, it's been quite tough," said the popular South African. "But I know that for the next three events, I'm going to give it a good go. A few wins on the European Tour gets you into the finals."
