Fabian Roosenbrand (born 18 December 1988) is Dutch darts player, who currently resides in Enschede, Netherlands. He is not a full-time professional player, and currently makes his living as a painter. He competes in tournaments organised by the British Darts Organisation and World Darts Federation.
He won two Open events in his native country during 2007 - the Mid-Netherlands Open and the North-West Netherlands Open, but made his mark on the scene by beating favourite and number two seed Gary Anderson in the first round of the 2008 BDO World Darts Championship.[1] Roosenbrand was making his debut on television and at the World Championship. It was also a major upset as Anderson had been widely tipped to take the title following his victories at the 2007 International Darts League and 2007 World Darts Trophy - tournaments which had featured players from both the BDO and PDC. He lost in the second round of the competition to Australian Simon Whitlock.
