Terrence 'Terry' Jenkins (born 26 September 1963 in Ledbury, Herefordshire) is an English professional darts player who is nicknamed The Bull, having previously used the nickname "Tucker" for his matches. He has reached number four in the world rankings and has been runner-up in nine major PDC televised finals (the 2006 and 2007 Grand Prix, 2007 Premier League, 2007 Las Vegas Desert Classic, 2007 and 2009 World Matchplay, 2008 Grand Slam, 2014 UK Open and 2014 European Championship).
It is a common myth that Jenkins is one of only a few people to only play his darts in the Professional Darts Corporation when, in fact, Jenkins has played in the BDO before, playing various opens from the early 1990s, and even reaching the quarter finals of the World Masters in 2003. Jenkins began to climb up the Professional Darts Corporation world rankings during 2005 by producing good performances in the tour events, which are played away from the television cameras. He won the Primus Masters in 2005 and added the Antwerp Open and the Open Hotel Zwartwater titles in 2006. Jenkins also played in several BDO events in the early stages of his career, including the Winmau World Masters where he once eliminated Tony O'Shea in the non-televised stages of the tournament. He is also often in attendance for the BDO World Championship, although he has never played in the competition.
In October 2006, he started to reproduce this form in front of the cameras by reaching the quarter finals of the 2006 Las Vegas Desert Classic and the final of the 2006 World Grand Prix in Dublin. Despite losing the final to Phil Taylor, he had just managed to achieve enough ranking points to reach sixth place in the world rankings and secured a place in the lucrative 2007 Premier League.
