Danny Jansen recently finished fifth in the European Q-School ranking. The 19-year-old Dutchman was the youngest player to win a Tour Card this year.
Jansen narrowly missed qualifying for the WDF World Championship at the end of last year by losing to Ryan de Vreede in the last round of the qualifying tournament.
At Q-School he reached the quarter-finals on the first day and the semi-finals on the third day, enough for a Tour Card.
“Of course you go there for the purpose of having it. But actually it was a surprise. I'm still very young, but I'm very happy to have him," Jansen told Darts Actueel.
Training with Kist
There are few tournaments in the Netherlands during the pandemic. “I mainly played with Christian Kist and other players from the neighborhood to improve my game”, says the Holtenaar. “I have worked even more hours than before. I think we need to do that even more now, especially because we are now entering a new period. We are going to do our best and then it should be fine.”
Now that he has a Tour Card, Jansen also wants to perform well on the Pro Tour as soon as possible. “Of course you will taste defeat, but I also hope that it will be the other way around as soon as possible. I personally think you can, but you will also get some serious knocks. That will make you hard.”
