PDC World Darts Championship: Jamie Lewis and Nick Kenny heading for Alexandra Palace

0:52 The World Darts Championship gets underway on Tuesday December 15 when Peter Wright kicks off the defence of the title he won last year

Kenny, with all the exuberance of a fan making the annual pilgrimage to Alexandra Palace, is champing at the bit.

“Everyone watches the Christmas darts, it’s not Christmas without the darts. If I start winning games, it’s going to make my Christmas a little different to what it normally is and that’s a good thing!

“The stage looks massive. I have never even been there, so if I can I’d like to go in before and have a look what it’s all about before I get the chance to play. I’m just happy to be there.

“The answer is, ‘yes’, I can compete with these top players, improve my ranking and be someone who people are looking forward to playing within the top 32.

“The end of the year has been saved really… I seem to do things last-minute! If you followed Q-School I was down in the dumps on Saturday night and then I went a bit berserk on the dartboard on the Sunday to get through.

“I’m a last-minute man and hopefully I can put it all together at the end of the year and do the business.”

You won’t miss a dart this Christmas thanks to the dedicated Sky Sports Darts channel which returns from December 15 until January 4 for every session from the World Darts Championship, including the final on Sunday January 3
