Danny Jansen opened his PDC ranking title account on Friday afternoon in a shock win over Andrew Gilding in a stacked 128 field in Barnsley at Players Championship 9.
Only nine events into his senior career, the unheralded 19-year-old Dutchman showed his talent and temperament in style to take out 'Goldfinger' and as expected, he was shocked to seal it.
