View on Wikipedia
Berry van Peer (born 23 August 1996) is a Dutch darts player who competes in Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) events. He formerly competed in World Darts Federation (WDF) events, winning his first WDF major title at the 2023 Dutch Open and winning the Swedish Masters and WDF World Cup Singles the same year. Van Peer has previously competed in the PDC's secondary tour, the PDC Challenge Tour, winning one title in 2019 and four in 2023.
Key Information
In his youth career, van Peer was runner-up at the 2016 PDC World Youth Championship and four PDC Development Tours.
Career
[edit]Van Peer won two events on the PDC Development Tour in Coventry in April 2015.[1] He went on to finish third in the 2015 Development Tour Order of Merit and was subsequently awarded a two-year PDC Pro Tour card for 2016 and 2017.
Van Peer qualified for the UK Open and Players Championship Finals in 2016, losing in the second round of each event.[2] He also reached the final of the 19th Development Tour tournament of the year and was defeated 4−3 by Mike de Decker.[3] Van Peer qualified for the final of the PDC World Youth Championship.[4] He played Corey Cadby in the final in Minehead, England in November, but lost 6−2.[5]
Whilst playing at the 2017 Grand Slam of Darts, Van Peer suffered a severe case of dartitis during his match with two time World Champion Gary Anderson. Former player and now Sky Sports pundit Wayne Mardle has talked about his struggles with dartitis and has thrown his support behind the young tyro, even touting him as a future champion despite his struggles with the condition. Despite his visible struggles on stage, Van Peer defeated both Simon Whitlock and Cameron Menzies in the group stage, before losing out to Mensur Suljović in the second round.[6]
Van Peer enjoyed somewhat of a comeback year during 2023, claiming four challenge tour titles to earn a spot at both the 2023 Grand Slam of Darts and the 2024 PDC World Darts Championship.[7] At the latter of the two, he defeated both Luke Woodhouse[8] and Josh Rock[9] to reach the third round on debut, where he was defeated by Damon Heta.

View on GrokipediaPersonal background
Early life
Berry van Peer was born on 23 August 1996 in Roosendaal, a town in the southern Dutch province of North Brabant.[1] He grew up in the region and currently resides in the nearby village of Sprundel.[1] The Netherlands has a vibrant darts culture, with North Brabant home to top professionals such as three-time world champion Michael van Gerwen from Boxtel.[12][13]Introduction to darts
Berry van Peer began playing darts in 2010 at the age of 14, initially in local settings around his hometown of Roosendaal in the Netherlands.[14] Known as "Bionic" from the outset of his public profile, the nickname highlights van Peer's resilient and mechanically precise throwing style, evoking images of unyielding determination akin to a bionic enhancement in his gameplay. Complementing this persona, he chose "Bara bada bastu" by KAJ as his walk-on music, an energetic and rhythmic Swedish party track from 2025 that pumps up the atmosphere and reflects his fun-loving yet intense competitive edge, often eliciting cheers from crowds at events.[15][2]Professional career
BDO and WDF beginnings
Van Peer entered organized darts competitions in 2013 at the age of 17, initially focusing on Dutch junior events that laid the groundwork for his international aspirations. His first major exposure in the BDO and WDF circuits came in 2014, when he represented the Netherlands as a youth player at the World Masters, advancing to the last 128 before being eliminated by Pip Blackwell.[16][17] That same year marked a breakthrough for van Peer in WDF youth competitions. He won the Open Youth Overall title at the WDF Europe Cup Youth, showcasing his potential with strong performances across singles and team formats. Additionally, as part of the Dutch youth team alongside Colin Roelofs, Kevin Doets, and Niels Zonneveld, he contributed to the nation's victory in the WDF Europe Cup Youth Teams event, securing the championship. These achievements elevated his standing in junior rankings and highlighted his role in Netherlands' emerging darts talent pool.[18][19][20] In 2015, van Peer maintained momentum in WDF events, participating once again in the World Masters and reaching the last 144 stage. He also captured the Denmark Open Youth title, further solidifying his reputation as a top junior prospect within the BDO/WDF framework. These results during 2014 and 2015 helped build his foundation, transitioning him from local amateur play to semi-professional opportunities through consistent national representation and ranking progress.[21]PDC development and Tour Cards
Van Peer made his debut on the PDC circuit in 2015 through the Development Tour, where he quickly established himself as a promising talent.[16] He won two events on the tour that year in Coventry in April, contributing to his third-place finish in the 2015 Development Tour Order of Merit.[22] This strong performance earned him a two-year PDC Tour Card for the 2016 and 2017 seasons, granting full access to the Professional Darts Corporation's Pro Tour events.[23] With his Tour Card secured, van Peer competed regularly on the main PDC Pro Tour, achieving several notable results in his debut professional seasons. A highlight came in 2017 when he qualified for the Grand Slam of Darts by accumulating sufficient points from Players Championship victories, marking one of his earliest major tournament appearances.[24] At the event in Wolverhampton, he advanced from the group stage to reach the last 16, defeating opponents including Cameron Menzies before being eliminated by Gary Anderson.[25] Despite these successes, van Peer was unable to maintain a position in the top 64 of the PDC Order of Merit by the end of 2017, resulting in the loss of his Tour Card for the 2018 season. He returned to the Development Tour to rebuild his form, but it was not until 2020 that he recaptured professional status. That year, he reached four consecutive semi-finals on the Development Tour, finishing third in the Order of Merit and earning another two-year Tour Card for 2021 and 2022.[26] However, similar challenges persisted, and he again fell outside the top 64 at the conclusion of 2022, relinquishing his Tour Card once more.[6]2023 WDF revival and PDC return
Following the loss of his PDC Tour Card at the conclusion of the 2022/23 season, Berry van Peer shifted focus to the World Darts Federation (WDF) circuit in 2023 to regain competitive momentum and rebuild his international ranking.[27] This strategic pivot came after failing to reclaim a Tour Card at the 2023 PDC Q-School, prompting him to enter WDF-ranked events for the first time in several years.[28] Van Peer's WDF resurgence began prominently in January 2023 at the Dutch Open in Assen, where he captured his maiden WDF major title by defeating Andy Baetens 3-1 in the men's singles final.[29] Building on this success, he secured his second WDF crown in August at the Swedish Masters in Malmö, rallying from behind to edge out Benjamin Dube 6-5 in the final with an 86.72 average, highlighted by a crucial 64 checkout on a match dart.[30] These victories elevated his WDF ranking and positioned him for further international contention. The pinnacle of van Peer's 2023 WDF campaign arrived at the World Cup in Esbjerg, Denmark, in September, where he clinched gold in the Men's Singles event by overcoming Germany's Frank Bruns 7-3 in the final, averaging 88.94.[9] Representing the Netherlands alongside Jelle Klaasen, Ryan de Vreede, and Wesley Plaisier, he also contributed to the team's overall gold medal in the Men's Teams competition, defeating England in the final and securing the combined singles and team triumph.[31][32] Concurrently, van Peer targeted a PDC pathway through the 2023 Challenge Tour, dominating the series with four victories—Events 6, 10, 12, and 13—which topped the Order of Merit and automatically awarded him a two-year PDC Tour Card for 2024 and 2025, marking his return to the professional circuit.[33] This dual success across organizations underscored a pivotal career revival, blending WDF accolades with renewed PDC access.[6]2024 World Championship and recent progress
Van Peer secured his debut appearance at the 2024 PDC World Darts Championship by finishing first on the 2023 PDC Challenge Tour Order of Merit, where he claimed four titles to earn the qualification spot.[33] In the tournament at London's Alexandra Palace, he advanced past the first round with a 3-2 victory over Luke Woodhouse, showcasing strong finishing despite a tight contest.[34] He followed this with a 3-1 upset win against the higher-ranked Josh Rock in the second round, averaging over 90 and capitalizing on key checkouts to reach the third round for the first time.[10] However, his run ended in the third round with a 4-3 defeat to Damon Heta in a seven-set thriller, where van Peer led early but faltered in the decider.[35] Building on this momentum into 2025, van Peer competed at the UK Open, advancing to the last 96 before elimination.[36] In the Players Championship series, he demonstrated consistent form with notable results, including a last-32 finish against Scott Waites in event 32 and a second-round win over Niels Springer in event 33, contributing to his steady progress on the Pro Tour.[37] As of 16 November 2025, these performances had elevated him to 82nd on the PDC Order of Merit, reflecting a career trajectory bolstered by over £194,188 in total earnings. He did not qualify for the 2025 Grand Slam of Darts.[38][2] Van Peer's 2023 WDF successes, including the World Cup singles title, provided crucial form heading into his PDC Challenge Tour dominance and qualification campaign. Following that triumph representing the Netherlands, he maintains an active role with the Dutch national team in international WDF competitions.[6][22]Achievements and challenges
Major tournament highlights
Van Peer's most notable performance in a PDC major came at the 2017 Grand Slam of Darts, where he advanced to the last 16 after securing victories in the group stage against Simon Whitlock (5-4) and Cameron Menzies (5-4), before falling 1-5 to Gary Anderson in the group stage and losing 2-10 to Mensur Suljović in the knockout round.[24][25] In other PDC televised events, van Peer has consistently reached the early knockout stages. He qualified for the UK Open in 2016, 2022, and 2025, exiting at the last 96 in each appearance.[36] On the European Tour, he achieved his best results in 2023, reaching the last 16 of the German Darts Grand Prix by defeating Josh Rock 6-4 in the second round, though he was eliminated 5-6 by Keane Barry in the subsequent match; he also progressed to the last 16 in another European Tour event that year.[39][40][36] Switching to the WDF circuit during his 2023 revival, van Peer captured three major titles, marking his strongest showings in organization-crossing TV-level events. He won the Dutch Open in January, defeating Andy Baetens 3-1 in the final with an 88.29 average, followed by the Swedish Masters in October, and capped the year by claiming the men's singles at the WDF World Cup in September, defeating Frank Bruns 7-3 in the final. He also won the men's pairs with Danny Jansen as part of the Dutch team.[29][41][36][8][42] These victories highlighted his competitive edge in high-profile WDF tournaments prior to his PDC World Championship debut in 2023/24. He competed in select WDF events in 2024 and 2025 but did not reach major finals, focusing primarily on the PDC circuit as of November 2025.[36] Across both organizations, van Peer's best TV finishes remain the 2017 PDC Grand Slam last 16 and his 2023 WDF major triumphs, underscoring his potential in premier events despite limited deeper runs.[36]Pro Tour and youth titles
Berry van Peer's early successes on the PDC Development Tour marked his emergence as a promising talent in professional darts. In April 2015, at age 18, he won two events in Coventry, England, which propelled him to third place on the 2015 Development Tour Order of Merit and earned him initial prize money of £1,000 across the victories. These triumphs provided crucial experience and financial support for his transition from youth to professional circuits. He added further accolades with a victory in the 2018 Development Tour Event 18 in Wigan, where he overcame Geert Nentjes 5-3 in the final, and in the 2020 Development Tour Event 1 in Hildesheim, Germany, beating Ryan Meikle in the decider; the latter win contributed to his securing a two-year PDC Tour Card at the conclusion of the 2020 season. These four Development Tour titles collectively earned him over £4,000 in prizes and established a foundation for sustained participation in PDC events. Van Peer's performances on the PDC Challenge Tour further solidified his professional pathway, particularly through consistent high finishes that influenced Tour Card eligibility. His first Challenge Tour win came in 2019 at Event 11 in Peterborough, England, where he defeated Cameron Menzies 5-2 in the final, netting £600 and boosting his ranking. Following a period of challenges, he dominated the 2023 Challenge Tour with four victories: Event 6 in Hildesheim (beating Peter Jacques 5-1), Event 10 in Milton Keynes (over Dragutin Horvat 5-3), Event 12 in Milton Keynes (against Harry Ward 5-3), and Event 13 in Milton Keynes (defeating Scott Mitchell 5-3). These successes, yielding £2,000 in prizes, placed him atop the 2023 Challenge Tour Order of Merit with 13,350 points, directly qualifying him for a PDC Tour Card for 2024 and entry into the 2024 PDC World Darts Championship. In his youth career, van Peer achieved prominence as runner-up in the 2016 PDC World Youth Championship, losing 6-2 to Corey Cadby in the final after victories over players like Steve Lennon and Nico Mandl en route. This performance, held in Minehead, England, highlighted his potential and earned him £3,000 as runner-up, serving as a precursor to his Development Tour successes. His early involvement in BDO youth events provided initial competitive exposure before shifting focus to PDC pathways. Overall, van Peer's nine PDC titles—comprising four Development Tour wins and five Challenge Tour victories—alongside the 2016 World Youth final and three WDF major titles, underscore his progression from youth prodigy to established professional.Dartitis episode and recovery
During the 2017 Grand Slam of Darts, Berry van Peer experienced the onset of dartitis, a psychological condition that severely impaired his ability to release the dart from his hand. The symptoms first became evident in the group stage, where he won his opening match against Simon Whitlock 5-4 but struggled increasingly in his second group match, culminating in an emotional breakdown during his 1-5 loss to Gary Anderson. Despite calls from tournament organizers to withdraw, van Peer persisted and secured advancement to the last 16 with a 5-4 victory over Cameron Menzies in his final group match, though his scoring average dipped to around 50 due to hesitation and frustration at the oche. In the last 16, the condition persisted, leading to a 2-10 defeat against Mensur Suljović and marking a traumatic public episode that highlighted the visible toll on his performance and composure.[3][24][43] Dartitis, often likened to the "yips" in other sports, is characterized by an involuntary inability to execute a routine action—in van Peer's case, releasing the dart at the intended moment—stemming primarily from performance anxiety and mental pressure rather than physical injury. Van Peer described the sensation as a sudden "fear of missing" that prevented the dart from leaving his hand, even when his aim felt correct, leading to prolonged turns and emotional distress on stage. No formal medical diagnosis was publicly detailed, but the condition was widely recognized within the darts community as a mental block exacerbated by high-stakes competition, with van Peer noting it did not affect his practice sessions but struck unpredictably during matches.[44][3][43] The episode triggered a prolonged hiatus from competitive darts at the elite level, spanning from late 2017 to 2023, during which van Peer lost his PDC Tour Card and saw his world rankings plummet outside the top 100. This period profoundly impacted his mental health, with van Peer later recounting it as "really awful" and something he "wouldn’t wish on anyone," involving months of avoiding practice altogether due to fear and frustration. He stepped back from PDC events, competing sporadically in lower-tier tournaments, which allowed time for reflection but also deepened the isolation and self-doubt associated with the condition.[45][43] Recovery began with gradual adjustments to his throwing routine, incorporating deliberate "ticks" such as an extra step or pause before release to rebuild confidence and interrupt the anxiety cycle. A turning point came in 2023 with his success in World Darts Federation (WDF) events, including a victory at the Dutch Open, which restored his momentum and led to topping the PDC Challenge Tour rankings to regain his Tour Card. By 2024, van Peer had returned to the PDC circuit, debuting at the World Championship and demonstrating sustained improvement, crediting the process with making him a more consistent player overall. He has since expressed hope that his journey inspires others facing similar struggles.[45][43]Tournament records
World Championship results
Berry van Peer's World Championship appearances span both the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) and World Darts Federation (WDF) circuits, highlighting his transition between the organizations. His debut in the PDC World Darts Championship came in 2024 via qualification through the 2023 Challenge Tour Order of Merit, where he topped the rankings to secure a spot. In contrast, his 2023 WDF World Cup success represented a pinnacle in the softer-tipped WDF format, which emphasizes legs over sets and features national team elements alongside individual events, differing from the PDC's set-based structure that escalates in length from best-of-five in early rounds to best-of-13 in the final. Van Peer adapted effectively to the PDC's format during his debut, showcasing improved finishing under pressure despite prior challenges with dartitis. In the 2024 PDC World Darts Championship at Alexandra Palace, van Peer entered as a qualifier and advanced to the third round. He began with a narrow 3-2 victory over Luke Woodhouse in the first round, averaging 92.34 and hitting crucial doubles to overcome a tough draw. This set up a surprise 3-1 win against 15th seed Josh Rock, where van Peer maintained composure to eliminate the higher-ranked Northern Irish player and reach the last 32 for the first time. His run ended in the third round with a 3-4 defeat to fourth seed Damon Heta, despite leading 2-1; Heta's superior checkout percentage of 50% proved decisive in the Australian's comeback. Van Peer's performance earned £15,000 and marked a strong PDC major debut, with his doubles conversion rate exceeding 40% across the matches.[34] Van Peer's most dominant World Championship showing came at the 2023 WDF World Cup in Esbjerg, Denmark, where he secured three gold medals representing the Netherlands. In the men's singles, he defeated Germany's Frank Bruns 7-3 in the final after earlier wins including a 6-4 quarter-final triumph over Canada's Bruce Robbins, posting an average of 87.13 in the decisive match. Teaming with Jelle Klaasen and Ryan de Vreede, the Dutch squad claimed the men's team gold by winning the overall team event, defeating England in the final through combined singles and pairs results. This contributed to the Netherlands' overall WDF World Cup title, with van Peer's singles victory anchoring the nation's success across formats that blend individual legs (best-of-11 in early stages, best-of-13 final). Prior to these achievements, van Peer had no recorded appearances in the BDO World Darts Championship (now under WDF governance) during its qualifiers from 2013 to 2015, as he was emerging in junior and development events at the time. He did not qualify for the 2025/26 PDC World Darts Championship main draw, participating only in the Tour Card Holder Qualifier where he won his first-round match 6-5 against George Killington before exiting in the second round.[46]| Event | Year | Stage Reached | Key Matches |
