“I think I didn't realise the commitment that came after winning the Worlds.”
“I get to see great places like Vegas - there's a lot to take in, isn't there? - and to have big names tell you that you're great, it's amazing.”
“Ability gets you so far, but having bottle and staying strong when you're getting pounded, staying in a game, that's a mental quality.”
“I actually gave up playing darts for three years after my little boy was born.”
“The first to five, it's anyone's game. You only have to slip up in one leg, they get a break and then you're up against it.”
“I just need to build myself up and get myself in the right place and if I do that I'm going to play great darts all the time.”
“I'll just try and try and perform to the best of my capabilities.”
“When I used to work, I used to come home every evening and see my kids. Now sometimes we can be on the road for six days a week or three weeks at a time.”
“I spend a lot of time away from my family but they are so supportive and have been brilliant - the confidence you get from them, cheering you up when you feel a bit low.”
“Don't get me wrong I believe in my own ability.”
“As long as I do the right things for me, I can go in there and win anything.”
“As long as I feel good in myself I think I will perform better.'”
“I have been able to buy a house with a swimming pool and everything we do now is completely transformed compared to what it was like when I was an electrician.”
“The money financially is more for the family because I just enjoy playing darts. It's great situation to be able to earn money out of it.”
“I've got a good backing behind me with my management team, and my family are all down to earth.”
“I've never cheated at anything.”
“If you can deliver the big shots at the right time, they hurt.”
“I won the World Championship as a novice. They're strong words and most people probably won't like that but I couldn't care.”
“To get up in the morning and do what I love doing is a dream and it has come to reality for me.”
“It doesn't matter what that crowd's doing. You've still got to go up there and do your stuff to win.”
