Thanawat Gaweenuntawong is a Thai darts player.

Career

Thanawat made his Professional Darts Corporation debut at the 2014 PDC World Cup of Darts in Hamburg, representing Thailand alongside Watanyu Charonrooj. They were whitewashed 5-0 in the first round by England's Phil Taylor and Adrian Lewis.[1] Thanawat also competed at the 2015 and 2016 World Cup events with Attapol Eupakaree, again losing in the first round on each occasion.

Thanawat won the South-East Asian Qualifier for the 2016 PDC World Darts Championship, defeating Malaysia's Tengku Hadzali Shah in the final to become the first player from Thailand to qualify for a World Darts Championship.[2] He played against Germany's René Eidams in the qualifying round, losing 2-0 in a low-quality contest that saw both players average below 70.[3]
