In Part 2 of the Jonny Clayton story, host Darren Rees continues the incredible journey of the Welsh darts star known around the world as “The Ferret.”

After years balancing plastering work in Carmarthenshire with local league darts, Jonny Clayton finally took the leap into professional darts in 2015 at PDC Qualifying School, earning his PDC Tour Card at the age of 40. From that moment, the quiet competitor from the village of Pontyberem in South Wales stepped onto the toughest darts tour in the world.

In this episode you’ll hear how Jonny fought his way through the PDC Pro Tour, qualified for major TV tournaments like the Grand Slam of Darts, and won his first PDC ranking title in 2017. The story builds all the way to his breakthrough on the biggest stages in darts, including Alexandra Palace, the Players Championship Finals, and the World Cup of Darts.

You’ll also discover how Jonny Clayton helped Wales win the PDC World Cup of Darts, and how 2021 became the greatest season of his career, when he won multiple major titles including The Masters, the Premier League of Darts, the World Grand Prix and the World Series Finals.
