Dawson Murschell (born 23 November 1995) is a professional Canadian darts player who plays in Professional Darts Corporation events.
Murschell first appeared in a televised darts tournament in 2017, when he took part in the North American Championship, defeating David Cameron, before losing to eventual winner, Willard Bruguier. By qualifying for that tournament, he also qualified for the 2017 US Darts Masters in Las Vegas, where he was drawn against James Wade in the first round. After surviving six match darts from "The Machine", Murschell hit double top to win and set up a quarter-final with Gerwyn Price, which he would go on to lose 8–4.
Murschell continued to make appearances in the PDC youth tour before 2018 Q school where he secured his card on the final day for 2018/19.
He reached the semi-finals in the North American Championship again in the 2018 addition. In the 2018 US Darts Masters, he beat Gerwyn Price 6-2. However, Murschell again lost in the quarter-finals 8-5 to Gary Anderson.
His performances on the pro tour where enough for him to be ranked as Canada’s number 2 which allowed him to team up with John Part at the 2018 PDC World Cup of Darts. The pair won their first round game by beating Italy 5-1 but lost 2-0 in the second round to Japan.
Dawson’s quarter-final run in Vegas secured his spot at the World Series of Darts Finals in Austria, although unfortunately wasn’t able to compete due to falling ill and had to pull out of the event.
