In the third round, he maintained his momentum with another straight-sets win, defeating Lukas Parker 4–0 while averaging 96.83. The fourth round saw Brow face the in-form Zion Carter, where he dropped his first set of the tournament but responded emphatically, winning 4–1 with a tournament-high average of 110.68. In the quarter-finals, Brow faced his toughest test yet against the two-time defending champion, Max Mad. Rising to the occasion, Brow produced one of the standout performances of the event, winning 5–1 with a 109.75 average to reach the first semi-final of his career. There, he met Gage Kelly, a consistent high-scorer throughout the tournament. Brow continued his superb run, dispatching Kelly 6–1 with a 105.02 average to reach the final on debut. In the championship match, Brow faced Logan White — another standout performer who had only dropped a handful of sets en route to the final. Despite White averaging an impressive 108.98, Brow held his nerve and delivered when it mattered most. With a clinical 106.91 average, he claimed a 7–4 victory to become the 2025 IDF World Champion. The win made Brow only the second player in history to win the title on debut, following in the footsteps of Max Mad.

Premier League
2025
Brow made his debut in the second edition of the IDF Premier League, a 14-night season followed by Playoffs at The O2 in London. Entering as one of the top four players on the Order of Merit, he quickly established himself as the standout competitor of the campaign.
He won seven nightly titles across the league stage, beginning with victory on the opening night in Rotterdam where he defeated Jaxon Reid 6–3 in the final. Additional night wins followed in Birmingham (Night 4), Nottingham (Night 6), Cardiff (Night 7), Manchester (Night 10), Rotterdam again (Night 11), and Birmingham once more (Night 13). He also reached three further nightly finals, finishing runner-up to Logan White twice and Rhys Sullivan once. Brow’s consistency placed him at the top of the league table with 48 points, ten clear of nearest rival Logan White. He recorded 36 match wins from 45 played, with a legs record of 195 won to 130 lost, the best differential in the field.
In the Playoffs, Brow defeated Jaxon Reid 10–5 in the semi-finals to set up a rematch with White. In a high-quality final at The O2 Arena, Brow prevailed 11–8 to secure his first Premier League title. His triumph made him the first-ever IDF Premier League champion and underlined his resurgence after previous struggles, re-establishing him among the elite of the sport.
Playing style and persona
Brow has a very standard throw, where he stands pretty much straight with him placing his front foot side-ways onto the oche. He leans forward slightly and has a very smooth throw which allows him to have full control over his darts. Brow manages to throw extremely fast, but is able to slow down drastically depending on his accuracy at the time. He uses three fingers to grip his dart, but is also able to change his grip with a fourth finger.
