Who is Pat Orreal?
Patrick Orreal is an Australian darts player who plays for the British Darts Organisation.
Orreal qualified for the inaugural Grand Slam of Darts for reaching the final of the PDC Australian Open where he lost to Glen Power. The result meant that Power had initially qualified for the event but was forced to withdraw due to visa problems and Orreal replaced him. He reached the last 16 of the 2007 Grand Slam of Darts, defeating Niels de Ruiter and Phill Nixon to finish second in his group before losing to Jelle Klaasen 10-9. Orreal's 5-4 victory over Nixon remains the only occasion in Grand Slam history that a player has recovered from 4-0 down to win 5-4.
In February 2008, it was announced that Orreal was to join the PDC full-time but failed to recapture his form from the Grand Slam, winning prize money in only one of his first ten events and failed to qualify for the UK Open. He then reached the semi-final of the Australian Open Players Championship, achieving wins against lady player Mellisa Sinnott, Barry Jouannet, Denis Ovens and Warren French before losing to Paul Nicholson.
