Joe Murnan played without noteworthy success from 2006 to 2011 the BDO Circuit though he reached in 2010 the Last 40 of the Winmau World Masters. 2011 he qualified as an amateur for the UK Open and played himself under the last 32.
In 2012 Murnan decided to try his luck with the PDC and took part in Qualifying School. He got himself a Tour Card. In his first year on the Pro Tour he qualified again for the UK Open but lost this time first round. It took till 2014 before he reached the Last 32 again and in the same year he reached the last 16 of a Players Championship for the first time. In 2015 he stood in the quarterfinals of an European Tour event and later in the year won his first - and so far only - Players Championship. 2016 and 2017 Murnan qualified for the PDC World Championship, 2017 and 2018 by the qualifier for the Grand Slam of Darts. End of 2018 he lost his Tour Card but won it back in Qualifying School 2019. The following two years were in no way better for Murnan and end of 2020 he again lost his Tour Card and again won it back immediately.
