Kuivenhoven missed out on qualifying for the 2024 PDC World Championship by £1,000 on the Pro Tour Order of Merit, and failed to qualify for the 2025 edition by £500. This led to him finishing the 2024 season 75th on the Order of Merit, therefore losing his tour card.

Kuivenhoven regained his Tour Card at Q–School in January 2025. He reached his first PDC ranking final at Players Championship 22 in June 2026, where he lost 8–5 to Rob Cross.
