Rusty-Jake Rodriguez

Rodriguez won a PDC Development Tour event in 2017, as well as the WDF Europe Youth Cup boys' pairs event with Thomas Langer in the same year. Rodriguez and his brothers Rowby-John and Roxy-James qualified for the 2017 Austrian Darts Open. This was his PDC European Tour debut. He was eliminated in the second round. Rodriguez was the first player to win the JDC World Darts Championship in 2017 after he defeated Owen Roelofs 5–4 in legs.

Rodriguez won five titles on the 2021 European Development Tour, finishing top of the Order of Merit which granted him qualification for the 2021 Grand Slam of Darts and a two-year PDC Tour Card. At the Grand Slam, he played in Group B but went winless in matches against Jonny Clayton, Mervyn King and Bradley Brooks.

Rodriguez made his PDC World Darts Championship debut at the 2022 World Championship, winning his first match 3–1 against Ben Robb. In the second round, he went 2–0 up against Chris Dobey but ultimately lost the match 3–2.

Rodriguez won his seventh Development Tour title in 2023, defeating Dominik Grüllich 5–3 in the final of Event 21. In November 2023, he secured qualification for the 2024 PDC World Darts Championship through the Tour Card Holder Qualifier. He lost 3–0 against Cameron Menzies in the first round.

Rodriguez lost his Tour Card after two years, but following a one-year absence from the PDC Pro Tour, he regained his Tour Card at 2025 Q-School after finishing sixth in the European Q-School Order of Merit.

On 16 September 2025, the Darts Regulation Authority (DRA) confirmed that Rodriguez had been provisionally suspended for a failed drugs test during Players Championship 24. The following month, Rodriguez revealed on Facebook that he was free to return to competition. Issuing a statement on the matter, the DRA stated that Rodriguez had been subjected to a one-month ban for the ingestion of a non-performance-enhancing substance out of competition.
