“The start of this year was so much harder than my injury. It was a different scale,” he told the PDC. “In the Premier League, I was 4-0 up against Peter [Wright] in Brighton and I was playing unreal darts.
“All of a sudden, I couldn’t throw my dart and I lost 6-4. That was the lowest point of my career. The day after that I got on four trains to Tottenham to speak to a sports psychologist, and six days later I was in Rotterdam playing Michael [van Gerwen], with 12,000 fans against me!
“It was probably the worst situation I could have been in, but I went and won the night, and that shows the strength and determination that I have. I’m trying to push a few players that have been struggling with their game, because it’s worked absolute wonders for me.
