Joshua Richardson following in father James' footsteps by securing PDC Tour Card: "It's been a dream so I'm really, really happy"

Joshua Richardson secured a PDC Tour Card for the next two years on the final day of Q-School. The Englishman lost to Dom Taylor in the final, but thanks to a third-place finish on the Q-School Order of Merit, he was still more than safe for a card.
Q-School didn't start so well for Richardson however. "The first two days I went out first round and yesterday I got three points, reached the quarter-finals so I had a lot to do today. But, I managed to get to the final and I'm absolutely over the moon."
The 25-year-old Englishman thus follows in the footsteps of his father James Richardson, who himself is a former Tour Card holder and famously defeated Raymond van Barneveld at the World Darts Championships. "First time doing it obviously but it's been a dream so I'm really, really happy."
Richardson, however, remains level-headed. "My manager has said I need to get fitter because in that final, I couldn't handle it. So yeah, first thing to do is get fit!"

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
