Fallon Sherrock says the agony of missing out on the World Championship on leg-difference has made here more determined to win a PDC Tour Card at UK Qualifying School next week.

At the PDC Women's Series in October, Sherrock missed out by just two legs on a return to Alexandra Palace where she so famously defeated Ted Evetts and Mensur Suljovic in the 2019/20 event.

The 26-year-old will be among the hundreds of hopefuls at the Marshall Arena in Milton Keynes, starting next Monday, with Sherrock focussed on becoming one of the Tour Card winners.

"It was upsetting at the time but I could either keep getting upset about it or move on from it and that's the way I'm looking at it," Sherrock told The Darts Show Podcast

"I'm using it to make myself more determined. I'm not going to lose by two legs in the future, I don't want to be in that scenario again.

"Lisa winning a Tour Card last year was a great achievement. We all want to get on the ProTour, I want to join Lisa and I know I've got the game.

"I wouldn't be going to Q School if I didn't think I was capable of doing it. I feel like I'm ready for it, I'm ready to be pushed by top quality players.

"I've been practicing a lot. I'm looking forward to Q School so much, I'm looking forward to getting out of the house and playing some proper darts.

"I'm very excited. It will be a very different environment to last year, I don't know what to expect from the whole experience."

Sherrock drew 6-6 with eventual Premier League winner Glen Durrant in Nottingham in March 2020


Having become a global sensation with her Ally Pally exploits, Sherrock was set for a global tour in 2020 following her inclusion in all the World Series events.

However, the 'Queen of the Palace' remains upbeat, adding: "Instead of dwelling on everything that could've been, I've got to look to the future and see what I can achieve going forward.

"I'm feeling very confident in the way I'm playing. At the Women's Series I really did play some quality darts but missed out by two legs. I think I'll always remember that.

"I know that if I keep performing when I'm in the spotlight then more opportunities will come in the future."

Both the UK and European Qualifying Schools will see Stage One held across two blocks of three days, from February 8-10 and 11-13, before the Final Stage is held from February 14-17.

I read somewhere that she is playing really well.

Good news about Part. One of the few decent commentators out there so need him available to talk about the game rather than playing it.

John Part seemingly have an issue when Sky were paying him to stay in a hotel in London during December for what I assume was a similar time period, funny that.

But Sky were probably picking up his hotel & expenses costs for something he was getting paid to do.

Going to Q School would have been costing him money and he would unlikely gain a tour card.

He only mentioned issues with testing and being sat in hotels, no different to what he will have had to endure over Xmas.

Agree he would have been throwing his money away though.

I dont blame Part. Some of these people are mad for doing Q School as they will have no chance of getting a card or having a good time on the challenge tour.

It's an individual choice. I don't think anyone is mad for following their dreams trying to get a tour card, however unrealistic. At the very least, the challenge tour offers experience to improve your game and to play competitively given there aren't any wdf/mad/ukda events yet.

I accept there is risk due to Covid, yet this is a risk we experience shopping, going to work, opening your parcels/letters etc and part of every day life. For me personally, I believe the testing and precautions in place at QSchool makes it a safer environment than going to work in an office for example. I guess all I am trying to say is it's an individual choice and I respect Part's choice not to attend, as you do. But I also respect the choices of others to attend regardless of their perceived ability of success.
