Callan Rydz is through to the second round at the PDC World Championship after defeating Steve Lennon in a great performance at times from the Bedlington ace.
Rydz admitted in his post match interview that one leg changed everything for him and he went off after being a bag of nerves to believing.
He also wants to shun the 'countback king' image that he has garnered at times due to his close shaves with gaining a Tour Card in the past and he believes now he will go on the tour full time that he can impress.
"I'm absolutely buzzing. After the first set I was a bag of nerves, went off stage and came back up and as soon as I won one leg, everything went back to normal," said Rydz to LiveDarts.
"With Q-School I know I'm called countback king now. I don't like getting called that but I'm there to prove people wrong. As soon as I get my card, I think I'll do well."
"I practice with Chris Dobey because I live 100 yards from him so it's not too bad for me. It's amazing, they're always there when I'm down."

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
