Following his victory he spoke to JDC representatives and had this to say:
"Yeah, it was a long day. Tired enough. When you get to the later stages, the games are on quicker and it's easier.
When asked about how he feels to be competing against the elite players on the tour he said:
Yeah, I think it'll get my game up to play against them."
He was then asked if he is looking to follow in the footsteps of current darts World Champion Luke Littler who had previously played on the Advanced Tour himself:
"Yeah, he's doing very well in PDC".
He also had time to thank his parents following the victory:
"Well, yeah, my dad brings me everywhere and my mam books all the stuff. And, all the support from everyone in Ireland is good."
Fair play to Jack on his brilliant achievement and he will be a name for us all to look out for as he continues his sporting journey!
