Max Hopp has retained his PDC Tour Card for the 2022 season after Raymond Smith lost out to Mervyn King in the Last 16 of the 2021/22 PDC World Darts Championship.
After not qualifying for the tournament, Hopp faced a nervous wait with multiple different scenarios potentially set to see him lose his Tour Card.
This wasn't made any easier as he was commentating on the game for DAZN in Germany alongside commentator and European Tour MC, Elmar Paulke.
But when King crossed the line, it panned to Hopp in the commentary booth who clenched his fist in celebration. No Q-School for 'The Maximiser'.

- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024

- I've always thought the top 24 should be made up of major winners and runners up then Euro tour followed by PC tour winners - if you don't have 24 after that then have some qualifiers.Thomas Moffatt03-11-2024
- If he gets even a ticking off there is something drastically wrong. Cut this woke crap, he was celebrating in the heat of the moment, not like he abused Bunting or punched someone, he was elated.Mysstree02-11-2024
