Career
Thanawat made his Professional Darts Corporation debut at the 2014 PDC World Cup of Darts in Hamburg, representing Thailand alongside Watanyu Charonrooj. They were whitewashed 5-0 in the first round by England's Phil Taylor and Adrian Lewis.[1] Thanawat also competed at the 2015 and 2016 World Cup events with Attapol Eupakaree, again losing in the first round on each occasion.
