The 38 year old had previously reached the Lativian Open final losing to Darius Labanauskas. Speaking to Inside the BDO podcast he said that he “absolutely never expected to come away with both trophies”.
“I’ve put the miles in the try and get points on the board and hopefully I can continue to do so.”
“I’m doing well this year. But there is still a lot of Catagory A tournaments where people can have big jumps up so I’ve got to keep going” continued the Middlesex man.
“I’ve had good weekends before and it’s all about being consistent. I feel more confident”

Scott also spoke about his experiences on holding a PDC Tour Card between 2012 and 2014 “I was going to the same two or three venues every time and I wasn’t enjoying my darts like I’d want to. “I said that I needed a year off just to get that hunger back, getting beat every week can really knock you back.” Said Scott When asked if he felt he had unfinished business Scott said “Never say never but Q-School is four of the hardest days of darts anyone will play. There is great players fighting for those cards and it’s draining. “And it’s one thing getting a card but it’s another thing keeping it and that’s what you need to do to have serious aspirations.” Scott’s performances this year have put him in a good position to be in contention for a Lakeside spot this year. It would be Scott’s first appearance at Lakeside, but he has played in a BDO major before, playing in the World Masters last year. And that seems to be what caused the upturn in his form and getting him into contention for a Lakeside place. Scott currently sits in the BDO Ranking table.

- Well,I suppose if you don't play the tournaments ,then why should any player qualify? There are players who enter every tournament,and if they don't win it,they carry on, spending money they haven't won,yet certain players seem to think they should qualify. Winners only I thinkrick6714-11-2026
- Everyone knows what a fantastic champion Taylor was,but his performances in the seniors were poor. He wouldn't throw littler off stage,as he'd miss these days!!rick6712-11-2026
- He produced some impressive numbers in that qualifying campaign. I'm excited to see him compete at the World Championship once again, even if it will be difficult to replicate last year's success even with an improved performance, with the draw playing a huge role in determining his fortunes.Deduce635811-11-2026
- I often think about this very question. I think they should revive the format. They could even invite representatives from MODUS Super Series, with four series winners from the past year, and the ADC, with finalists from the Global Championship and perhaps other events. Why not throw in eligible representatives from the JDC and even the soft-tip game too?Deduce635811-11-2026
- So what if littler missed out, he doesnt have to enter everythingant10-11-2026
- Good, absolutely no loss if we never see this dancing goof ever again......no that is not fair. He absolutely cannot and has never been remotely able to dance!richieburnettrocks10-11-2026
- Yes Phil,now the money in the game is bigger than ever,you'd play littler. Well so would I! Retire on your memory Phil,and your successful careerrick6709-11-2026
- And why should he listen to you?Deduce635807-11-2026
- Ultimately it is a bye for whoever draws Barney. It will be another stroppy and sulky performance once he goes behind. Barney was excellent but really must completely call it a day now.richieburnettrocks07-11-2026
- I'm disappointed he was not able to secure a spot at the Grand Slam. With Carl Sneyd taking care of Daryl Gurney, he would have had to beat Andy Boulton before facing the winner of Sneyd vs Mensur Suljović for a Grand Slam spot. Unfortunately, after beating Filip Bereza comfortably, he succumbed to Boulton, and the board would ultimately be won by the highly inconsistent Carl Sneyd. Since he could instead have been drawn against the likes of Cristo Reyes, Dirk van Duijvenbode and Stephen Bunting, I think once Gurney was out of the picture he would have been favourite to win his board, and it seems like a massive missed opportunity to put 5 grand on his ranking and seal another major TV appearance ahead of the Worlds. The highs and lows of following Raymond van Barneveld!Deduce635806-11-2026
