Chris Dobey made his breakthrough in 2016 and is aiming to push his way into the world's top 16 to continue his development.
The Northumberland-based youngster originally qualified for the 2014 UK Open as an amateur qualifier before joining the PDC circuit the following year, qualifying again for the UK Open and also for the World Series of Darts Finals.
2016 proved to be a big year as Dobey won a spot in the Grand Slam of Darts, where he won through to the quarter-finals in Wovlerhampton with a series of assured displays.
He also went on to qualify for a debut at the Players Championship Finals and his first World Championship appearance.
Team Unicorn star Dobey reached his first televised semi-final at the 2019 World Grand Prix, and went on to reach the final four at the Players Championship Finals a month later.
