Hear from the newest PDC Tour Card holder, Jake Jones, who picked up his Tour Card on Day Three of UK Q School. A brilliant achievement for the man from Stoke!
Jones after claiming latest outright Tour Card at UK Q-School: "It's a dream come true"

Jake Jones is the latest outright Tour Card holder at 2021 PDC UK Q-School after seeing off Gordon Mathers in a 6-5 win and he will now step onto the PDC ProTour for the first time.
A former BDO title winner, Development Tour winner and England Youth star, the Stoke-on-Trent scaffolder has achieved his dream by winning through on Tuesday.
"It puts all the practice and all the hard work into perspective really," said Jones. "It's a dream come true, I can't really put it into words.
"All I thought before coming here was to qualify for the last four days and then it just takes one good day. Yesterday was probably a better day than today, I've won four games 6-5 and it's a rollercoaster to be honest.
"It's quite remarkable for myself. When I was younger, a lot of people said it was quite promising how I was playing, and I was England number one for three years when I was 14-17.
"It really is nice to come through, I've put a lot of effort into this tournament. I love my job but I feel like it's time now to play darts like I can, and we'll see in the coming years how we do."

- 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
