19-year-old Jansen looks ahead to ProTour debut: "A completely different world is opening up for me"

Danny Jansen will compete on the PDC ProTour for the next two years after winning his Tour Card at PDC European Q-School in Niedernhausen.

Jansen eventually finished fifth in the European Q-School ranking and thus captured his Tour Card. “I played well. When I qualified for the final on one of the four days, I knew that a Tour Card was very close. Yet it can also just fall in the other direction, because you can be throwing all day. After a whole week I was really exhausted," Jansen told Tubantia.

Warm welcome

“This is a very special moment. My father was with me all week, playing a smaller tournament himself, and was also very emotional. A whole different world opens up for me now.”

Practicing more

Jansen works in the renovation of stairs and also regularly helps out at home on the farm. However, he will now focus more on his darts career. “I will have to practice more than before. The biggest goal now is to get to the top 64 players in the world. But we're just going to play and see what happens."
