"Getting really excited for it," said Campbell to Online Darts. "I don't think any draw is going to be easy but I think if I play my game and the pace is good, it should be an interesting match."

"I never have fears, he's obviously quality or he wouldn't be a two-time World Champion so I just go up and kind of makes it easier on me because you expect what he's going to do to you anyway."

He claimed the European Challenge Tour title which means that he will come over and play on the ProTour from next season which he was always going to do.

"I was always going to take my crack at whatever PDC stuff I could do so if I didn't get my Tour Card through Q-School then yeah still going to get the learning experience through the Challenge Tour."

Despite that, he still has a job at home albeit with supportive backing from his work.

"They're pretty supportive about it so it's nice to have that backing knowing that they'll let me come here when I have to and when I'm home, I still have a job."
