Zonneveld dissatisfied after defeat: 'People close to me know that I can do better'

The World Championship is already over for Niels Zonneveld. The Dutchman lost 3-0 in sets to William O'Connor in his debut at the Alexandra Palace in London.
"It was unbelievably cold", Zonneveld told RTL7Darts. "But that's no excuse. The game wasn't good and I know there is room for improvement." Zonneveld scored an average of 83.4 and was quickly 2-0 behind after a bad start. "This was not the World Championship I had hoped for," he continued. "The people close to me know that I can do better. If I don't hit my 180's quickly, I know it's not my day.''
With this defeat, Zonneveld's two-year Tour Card period comes to an end. The Dutchman did not succeed in securing a place in the top 64 of the world rankings during this period and therefore loses his Tour Card. In January he can try to conquer a new Tour Card at the Q-School.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. 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
