Devon Petersen is a PDC ranking winner after a phenomenal weekend at the German Darts Championship in Hildesheim with the European Tour returning after a hiatus since March.
Petersen has established himself in the PDC Summer and Autumn Series as one of the most in-form players on the tour and showed why with a brilliant victory in the final over Jonny Clayton capping it off.

'The African Warrior' spoke afterwards and said it was a culmination of all his hard work and effort over the course of his career so far.
He also admitted that there was times over the past few years where it has been difficult and the doubts have been there for him whether he'd ever reach this point.
"I've been working hard for what feels like a lifetime, since I was 15-years-old," said Petersen.
"The last two to three years have felt like the hardest because of the level of players I've been competing against.
"Sometimes you just feel like you're never going to get there because the players out there are so good.
"Losing to Gerwyn Price at the Autumn Series spurred me on to win this title.
"It's an amazing feeling. To stand on this stage as a PDC champion in front of fans is just fantastic, it's a very special night for me."

- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Nobody cares about averages, the only record he'll take from Phil and its meaningless. Winning tournaments is the only importance of darts and nobody will ever eclipse Phil in any meaningful way. What does an average pay or warrant any success, this proves that, yet people still bang on about them.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
