Career
Fullwell joined the PDC circuit in 2005 and narrowly missed out qualifying for the World Grand Prix, losing in the final game to Gary Welding. After that, Fullwell struggled to progress in tournaments, failing to qualify for major tournaments, including the UK Open. It wasn't until the end of 2007 where Fullwell began showing some promise, reaching the last 16 in a Player Championship tournament in Holland. He then reached the quarter-finals of the 2008 Bobby Bourn Memorial Trophy.
Fullwell won qualification for the 2009 PDC World Darts Championship, defeating former world champion Richie Burnett along the way, eventually beating Ken Dobson to qualify. He faced 2005 finalist Mark Dudbridge in the first round but lost 3-2.
