Jeffrey de Graaf has signed a contract with Target Darts. This arrow supplier also has such darts legends as Phil Taylor, Raymond van Barneveld, Adrian Lewis and teen sensation Luke Littler under contract.
De Graaf was born in the Netherlands, but has lived in Sweden for some time. Last December, he competed on behalf of that country at the World Darts Championship. There, De Graaf had an excellent tournament by beating Ritchie Edhouse and Jose de Sousa, before losing to former world champion Rob Cross in the last 32.
This year De Graaf won a Tour Card at the Q-School, giving him access to the lucrative Pro Tour circuit again. He also plays tournaments on the Nordic & Baltic Tour, where De Graaf has won two of the first four tournaments. Through this circuit, De Graaf could possibly re-qualify for the World Darts Championship.
De Graaf wants nothing more than to be at Alexandra Palace again in December. "I’m so excited to start this journey with Target Darts! My main goal for 2024 is to qualify for the next World Championship and I know with the best manufacturer on my side, I’ll be able to give it my best shot," he said.
Welcome to #TeamTarget Jeffrey de Graaf! 📝🇸🇪 We are delighted to welcome the Nordic & Baltic Order of Merit No.1 to the team and look forward to supporting his push to once again impress on the Alexandra Palace stage. Read the full announcement: bit.ly/3UjhF8g
