Fallon Sherrock is set to make her return on the World Series during the latest set of tournaments in Australia and New Zealand as she finally heads to Queensland, Wollongong and Hamilton over the next few weeks.
The 'Queen of the Palace' had a disappointing start to the World Series circuit with direct defeats at the US Darts Masters and Dutch Darts Masters but knows what went wrong.
“I haven’t played great in the World Series this year, but I got to the final in Copenhagen last year and performed well at the Grand Slam, so I’ve proved what I can do,” Sherrock said.
“I’m hoping that I can play well consistently, and that would be really good for my confidence going into the next Women’s Series, the Grand Slam and hopefully the Worlds if I qualify for that.
“It would be great to win a few games. If I get to a final again – brilliant. If I won an event, that would be awesome.
“The most important thing for me is to play well though. I know where I went wrong in New York, so that will not be happening in Australia.”
But the pressure is off further after the Queen of the Palace sealed the Women's World Matchplay and she will be announced as the champion for the first time.
“I feel like I’m going into Australia with less pressure on me now,” she added.
“I have proven that I can win titles when I’m not playing against the men.
“There was always the argument that ‘she can’t win it against the women, she can only win it against the men’, but I’ve proven I can.”
