In 2022, Josh Rock clinched the World Youth Championship title.
Josh Rock of Northern Ireland secured his first European Tour success by defeating Jonny Clayton 8-4 in the Dutch Darts Championship final. After a tight contest, the players were tied at 4-4 before the 23-year-old Rock pulled ahead to clinch victory over his Welsh opponent in Rosmalen. On his path to the final, Josh Rock conquered tough opponents, including Dirk van Duijvenbodem, Cameron Menzies and Gerwyn Price. He defeated Martin Schindler 7-3 in the semi-finals.
On the other hand, Clayton earned his spot in the final by clinching a hard-fought 7-6 victory over home favorite Michael van Gerwen in the semi-finals. Throughout the tournament, Clayton showcased his skill, knocking out Marin van Velzen defending champion Dave Chisnall and Ryan Searle. This victory marks the second PDC ranking title for the Broughshane thrower Rock, who previously won the Players Championship two years ago.
