Career

A former postman, Jacques attempted to win a PDC Tour Card in 2017, but after putting himself in a good position after three days, he did not appear for the fourth day, and subsequently did not receive a card.

He made the final of the first Players Championship event of 2017 in Barnsley, but lost 1–6 in the final to Alan Norris.

In May 2017, Jacques won a PDC Challenge Tour event, defeating Wayne Jones 5–4 in the final. He would win another Challenge Tour event in September, again defeating Jones, this time 5–2.

He acquired the nickname "The Terrier" late in 2017, sharing the nickname of the football team he supports, Huddersfield Town.
