Wilson after regaining Tour Card immediately at Q-School: "I knew I had to come here and kick on"

James Wilson regained his PDC Tour Card at the first opportunity on Wednesday seeing off Cameron Menzies on Day One of PDC UK Q-School.

Wilson produced in particular against Kevin Burness and George Killington with his back against the wall which proved pivotal and he is glad to return to the tour immediately and hopes to kick on now.

“I feel fantastic - I’ve played in the Worlds in the first round, and failed to keep my card. I knew I had to come here, kick on and things went really well,” said Wilson.

“I just had to keep focused all day and I’m delighted I have done it. With Covid, I couldn’t defend my money on the European Tour and fell down the rankings, as well as injuries hampering me.

"Here it is really hard work, but after competing at the World Championship I felt confident I could do it.”
