"I felt really confident all day long and I was happy with my game, but it was a tough final," said Raman. "I was 4-0 down and Mario Vandenbogaerde lost 6-0 yesterday, and I didn't want to do the same thing.

"I was thinking that I had to do my own thing and try to win the game, and fortunately Jules missed some doubles."

He added: "This is one of the biggest things I have achieved - a massive step. The real hard work starts now.

"I've got two massive years ahead now. I need to practice really hard now because there still needs to be a lot of improvement in my game to cope with the big boys in the PDC - but I know if I play my best game I can win some games as well."
