Career
In 2013, Van den Bergh won the British Teenage Open by beating Billy Longshaw 3–0 in the final.[1] Two months later he claimed the 16th PDC Challenge Tour event of the year by whitewashing Reece Robinson 4–0.[2]
In 2014 he entered Q School in an attempt to earn a PDC tour card, but he couldn't advance beyond the last 64 in any of the four days. However, he was granted PDPA Associate Member status for participating which gave him entry into UK Open and European tour qualifiers.[3] Van den Bergh qualified for the first European Tour event, the German Darts Championship and lost 6–2 in the first round against Ronnie Baxter despite averaging 102.94.[4] Van den Bergh won three youth tour titles during the year and also reached the last 16 of the Under-21 World Championship, where he lost 6–3 to Robinson.[5] He finished top of the Youth Tour Order of Merit which has earned him a two-year card for the main PDC tour.[6]
