CareerGardner showed some promise during early days of televised darts - although the only title he won was the Belgian Open in 1984, which was a non-televised event. He reached the last 16 of the Winmau World Masters in 1985 and then qualified for the World Professional Darts Championship for the first time in 1986 where he lost in the first round to Terry O'Dea. It was the first year the tournament was staged at the Lakeside Country Club. He failed to progress beyond the second round in his visits to Lakeside, but did come up against some legends of the game including Eric Bristow, Jocky Wilson and Mike Gregory. He managed to reach the quarter finals of the World Masters in 1990 - but by this time, that tournament was no longer televised. Only the World Championship remained on the screens during that era, which was one of the reasons that many top players became unhappy with their lack of television exposure. Gardner was amongst the group of 16 players who "defected" from the British Darts Organisation between 1992 and 1994 as one of the founder members of the World Darts Council (now the Professional Darts Corporation - PDC) and he received more television exposure between 1994 and 1999 at their World Championship - but never managed to progress beyond the group stages. He also competed in the WDC/PDC's World Matchplay tournament in 1994, 1995, 1996 and 1998 - but never won a single match. After the 1999 World Championship he faded from the scene and no longer competes on the darts circuit - although he did compete at a couple of PDC Open events in Eastbourne in 2005 and 2006 but never progressed beyond the very early rounds.
