He made his TV darts debut representing his country in the 2015 PDC World Cup of Darts with Mariusz Paul. Unfortunately, they were whitewashed by the Republic of Ireland duo of William O'Connor and Connie Finnan 5–0.

In 2017, he made the last 80 of the World Masters, then he played in the 2017 PDC World Cup of Darts, this time with Krzysztof Ratajski. Yet again, they played the Republic of Ireland (this time composed of O'Connor and Mick McGowan), and were defeated 5–3.

In January 2018, he became the first Polish player to gain a two-year PDC Tour Card. He won the 3rd day of European Q-School by defeating Spain's Jose Justicia 5–3 in the final. The following week, he won the Eastern European qualifier for two of the first three events of the 2018 PDC European Tour (the 2018 European Darts Open and the 2018 German Darts Open).

In April 2019, Kanik reached his first PDC semi final at Players Championship 9, where he lost to Gabriel Clemens.

A month later, he made the final day of a European Tour event for the first time, beating Dietmar Burger and Jonny Clayton to reach the third round.
