Cameron Carolissen (born 16 January 1996) is a South African darts player who competes in Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) events. He has made two PDC World Darts Championship appearances and has represented South Africa at the PDC World Cup of Darts.
Carolissen began playing darts at the age of 12; he was inspired by his father and aunt who both played darts regularly.
Carolissen qualified for the 2021 PDC World Darts Championship after winning the PDC African Qualifier, beating two-time World Championship participant Charles Losper 7âÂÂ4 in the final. He received a bye into the second round of the tournament after his opponent Martijn Kleermaker withdrew due to contracting COVID-19. Kleermaker's replacement, Josh Payne, was also ruled out after he had to self-isolate due to coming into contact with someone with COVID-19. In the second round, he was beaten 3âÂÂ1 by Danny Noppert.
Thanks to his success on the African Continental Tour, Carolissen made his PDC World Cup of Darts debut at the 2024 PDC World Cup of Darts for the South African team, partnering fellow debutant Johan Geldenhuys.
Carolissen qualified for the 2025 PDC World Darts Championship by winning the African Darts Group Qualifier. He overcame Kenya's Peter Wachiuri in the final 8âÂÂ7 in legs, surviving a match dart for a 154 checkout from Wachiuri. At the World Championship, Carolissen was drawn to play Wessel Nijman, one of the favourites to win the tournament. Nijman took a 2âÂÂ0 lead but Carolissen won the next two sets to level the match at 2âÂÂ2. They entered a sudden death leg, where Nijman won the match 3âÂÂ2. Despite the defeat, Carolissen hoped his performance would help grow interest about darts in Africa.
