Chris Loudon (born 19 May 1985 in Glasgow) is a Scottish darts player currently playing for British Darts Organisation. Loudon began playing darts aged 4, and throughout his childhood and early teens, had competed in local and international youth tournaments with the BDO. Loudon last played competitively for the BDO (British Darts Organisation) in February 2009, when he played in the BDO 2009 Scottish Open. He reached his board semi final in this event, which was later won by Tony O'Shea. After this tournament, he decided to move to the PDC. To date, his greatest achievement in the PDC is reaching the second round of the Blue Square, 2009 UK Open Darts tournament, held in Bolton. As of 3 July 2010, Loudon is ranked 115th, according to the PDC Order of Merit . In separate ranked tournaments, Loudon is currently ranked joint 79th in the 2010 PDC Player's Championship Order of Merit, and was ranked joint 64th in the Blue Square UK Open Order of Merit in 2009. In 2010, and in the same tournament, Loudon was ranked 95th, and therefore qualified to compete in the Riley's Darts Zones - UK Open Darts Championship for a second time. Loudon was interviewed on Scottish radio station 96.3 Rock Radio, where he expressed his excitement in participating in the tournament. In the same interview, Loudon confirmed that he has no official walk on music or darts nickname, but has been referred to as 'Fingers' because he 'works with computers and plays darts'. The DJ then suggested the nickname 'Stiff Little Fingers' (reference to the Northern Irish punk rock band), and perhaps 'something by them' for his walk-on music. On Thursday, 3 June 2010, he played against Paul Whitworth in the first round and was subsequently defeated 6-5. In October 2010, Loudon decided to move back to the BDO. ==Outside darts== Loudon currently works full-time for his local government authority, and lives in a suburb in the East End of Glasgow. He has a keen interest in football, and he was a promising goalkeeper in his youth. He was once scouted for Dundee United F.C. but chose to play darts instead of football. When he is not playing darts, Loudon enjoys supporting the Scottish national football team, and following Rangers F.C. He also enjoys playing golf and snooker. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chris Loudon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
