‘Who wants a Chinese?’ – Hood achieves his ‘dream’

Justin Hood, the English debutant, delivered a stunning performance that made it to the PDC World Championship quarter-finals, fulfilling his lifelong dream of opening a Chinese restaurant.

Josh Rock, the 32-year-old who was ranked 86th in the world at the start of the tournament, defeated him to increase his World Championship earnings to £100,000.

Hood knew he needed “one more win” before his final-16 victory over Northern Ireland’s World Cup winner to finally open a Chinese restaurant.

Hood said on Tuesday, “I believe we are here now.”

He missed his first doubles attempt when he attempted to beat 143 to win the match on his first attempt against Rock.

Who wants a Chinese, he asked the audience after winning?

Hood quit his job as a night porter at a hotel last year in order to earn his tour card, which he job-shared with his wife Jessica. Hood then spent eight weeks living in a hotel in Milton Keynes.

Hood and his wife always believed it could be done with more practice, and now they are delivering at the highest level.

His Jessica told BBC Radio Bristol, “I have known about this]Hood wanting to open up a Chinese] from the moment I met him.

He has wanted it for the past ten years, and we’ve been together for that long.

Numbers have not been crunched yet, and there is no known business plan, but it will likely occur next year.

With his nickname “Happy Feet,” which perfectly reflects his laid-back and humorous persona, Hood has won over the Ally Pally crowd.

However, his nickname is unrelated to his personality.

When he was a young boy, he forgot his shoes, which is a requirement for him to wear, and he couldn’t play without them, Jessica said.

He received shoes to borrow from a member of his team who was a size 13 foot. He’s either eight or nine.

They bent up like slippers when he put his foot on the oche. Then, he was referred to as “Happy Feet.”

Hood is confident that his remarkable run, which included a victory over Danny Noppert, will continue.

Gary Anderson, a former world champion, is currently anticipating a victory on Thursday.

Hood added that he now wants the trophy because the money is a bonus.

It’s not a fairy tale; “I know what I can do and it’s nice to put it up there,” Hoo said.

I don’t worry about any players, they just say. Whether it’s Gary Anderson, Michael van Gerwen, or a friend from the pub, I don’t care. Everyone in here will win if I play my game.

Beyond that, perhaps? Possibly opening a restaurant, in addition?

He continued, “I have to win the World Championship, and if I win, I’ll be in the Premier League,” possibly.
