Mikuru Suzuki is one of the players making her debut Sunday afternoon at the Women's World Matchplay in the Winter Gardens. She will meet last year's losing finalist, Aileen de Graaf in the first round.
Suzuki has had an outstanding year at the PDC Women's Series. Last year she was in the final in nine of 20 tournaments and this year the Japanese has already won two titles.
“I was really disappointed to miss out on qualifying last year, so I am very happy to be here. Everyone who has qualified for this event is a very good player. It will be a very tough game against Aileen, but I will just try my best," she said in a preview on the PDC website.
The 41-year-old Suzuki realizes what is at stake at the Women's World Matchplay. ''It’s a very good opportunity for me to make a name for myself in the PDC, and if I win this title I will be in the Grand Slam and World Championship, which is my main goal.”
