Career

Dawson began to see success in the 2014–15 season as he qualified for the televised stages of the Winmau World Masters, losing narrowly to Glen Durrant after having match darts. Dawson then debuted at the World Championship and reached the quarter-finals, after victories against Seigo Asada, Madars Razma, and Jeffrey de Graaf. He was eventually defeated by fourth seed Scott Mitchell, who went on to win the tournament. In 2017 Dawson was called up to the British International Championships for the second time. [1]
