Harry Robinson
Introduction
Harry Robinson (born 27 December 1969) is an English darts player currently playing in Professional Darts Corporation events. He used to play rugby union, before switching to darts.
Career
From Eden, Cumbria, Robinson originally started his sporting career playing rugby union, before switching to darts in 1990, reaching the final of the BDO German Open that year.
After switching to the PDC, he played in the 1997 World Matchplay, losing to Mick Manning in the first round. His big breakthrough came in the 1998 PDC World Darts Championship, when he won Group 8. After losing to the American Steve Brown in his first match, he needed a big win against 3rd seed Alan Warriner to qualify for the quarter-finals, and thanks to whitewashing him 3–0, he topped the group by set difference. He would go on to lose 4–1 to Keith Deller in the quarter-finals.
After doing nothing of note for the majority of the following 20 years, Robinson won a PDC Tour Card at Q-School in 2016.
