Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) Tournament Winners

The Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) was initially formed and was known as the World Darts Council (WDC). January 1992, after 16 BDO top professional players, along with managers Dick Allix, Tommy Cox and John Markovic, decided to break away from the British Darts Organisation in order to gain better sponsorship and TV coverage of their chosen sport, darts! The PDC now boasts an annual prize fund of £10M (2018) a figure that is constantly growing.
In 2001, the board of directors decided to step down in favour of a specialist promotional team, headed by boxing and snooker promoter, Barry Hearn, who became the chairman of the PDC.
The new team have taken darts to a new height with major TV contracts and sponsorship. The fan base for the sport has also vastly increased with venues selling out as quickly as the tickets go on sale.
In June 2018 the German Masters had over 20,000 dart fans attending. The sport has also travelled widely across the Globe with the help of the PDC where fans can see first hand the skill of the Professional PDC dart players.
Below is a list of winners, champions of the PDC staged events. Over the years the format of some of these events has changed but the prestige hasn’t.

PDC Youth World Champions
Although the BDO has been the bedrock for youth darts for many years, it was the PDC who first introduced a World Darts Championship. Until this point, the biggest accolade a youth player could hold was the Winmau Masters title. The masters introduced a joint boys and girls (Youth) Championship in 1986. In 1999 this was split into two separate titles one for boys the other girls.
BDO classify a youth player of 18 years or younger, however, the PDC have revised their youth tournament age minimum 16 years – 23 years. Personally, 23 seems a little old for a youth player especially when Jelle Klassen won the BDO World Championship at the age of 21 and Michael van Gerwen won the Winmau Masters at 17 years old.

PDC World Matchplay
The World Matchplay started in 1994 and is a firm favourite of the players and the dart fans. It is played over the summer period and currently staged at the Winter Gardens Blackpool. The Winter Gardens iconic surroundings along with a close crowd atmosphere make this one of the top events of the season.
This is one of the titles all dart players want to win alongside the World Championships. Played in leg format, not sets, can make for some run away winners. However, there have been many last leg deciders in this tournament.

PDC World Grand Prix
The World Grand Prix is unique in its format. The event is a double start double finish and many an upset is caused during this week-long tournament. Failure to start a leg with the first three darts can mean game over. However, even with this tough start, 9 dart finishes have been seen usually with a 160 start, 180, 161 finish. Although 9 darters are possible, many dart players opt for the doubles they normally finish legs, mainly double 16 at this point they immediately opt out trying to hit a perfect leg.
I wonder if we will ever see a Bull, T20, T19 start followed by a T20, T19, Bull and the same again to finish the match? A perfect 9 darter, no other dart hitting another?

PDC UK Open
The UK Open is known as the FA Cup of darts! As the name implies the tournament is open to all comers. I personally played in one of the first winning locally but due to other commitments could not attend the knockout stage to go through to the finals!
This event gives the unknown player a chance of playing some of the biggest names in darts and although there are seeds that come into the event at the later stages, the draw from then on is blind. After each round, the player's names or numbered balls to be precise, are put into a bag and the drawn live meaning seeds can easily be knocked out and the unknown local hero can proceed further in the tournament.
This is a great event, well attended as per any PDC tournament and above all fun to watch the drama unfold.

PDC Grand Slam of Darts
The Grand Slam of Darts first started in 2007 and is a cross-organisation tournament. It features top players from the PDC and the BDO. The initial rounds consist of players of both organisations competing in a round-robin group phase, with the top two progressing into a straight knockout to decide the eventual winner. In 2021, after the demise of the BDO, the PDC introduced a mini women's Series qualifying event. The event allowed two women to play in the Grand Slam, plus the top also qualified for the PDC World Championships. The top eight players from the Women's Series Order of Merit were also given free entry into the PDC Q-School Qualifiers for 2022. In previous years, the BDO Women's World Champion would have featured in the Grand Slam and no free entry Q-School.
Fallon Sherrock and Lisa Aston qualified for the event in 2021. Fallon excelled in the round-robin phase with over 100 average in one match (the first televised for a woman) and qualified for the knockout stage, again a first for women. She again beat Mensur Suljović in the first round of the knockout stage, who she previously beat in the 2019 PDC World Championships. Fallon but lost the eventual finalist Peter Wright.
Below are a list of winners and runners-up of this event and you can also see the organisation they were playing under at the time of the event.
Following the BDO’s liquidation in 2020, the qualification format has changed and is now solely based on PDC-managed events.

PDC World Cup of Darts
Until 2019 the tournament involved 32 Countries consisting of two-player teams. The top 8 seeded countries are placed into eight different groups: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H. They are joined by three unseeded Countries in each group and a total of four teams per group.
The first round consists of a round-robin stage where each country in the elected group play each other with the top two teams progressing to the second-round knockout stage.
The scoring is done on a point system. Each player plays singles against the opposing team; if they win, they score a point if they lose, they score nothing. After the singles, should the score be even then one round of doubles takes place to decide the winner.
From 2019 the event changed its format to a straight knockout. The top eight seeded countries remain, however, the round robin stage is removed. The point system remains with the first round consisting of best of nine legs played in doubles. The second round, quarter and semi-final are two best of seven leg singles, if the scores are even at the end of this session a double match determines the match.
The final requires three points to win the title. Two best of seven legs singles are played followed by a best of seven doubles. If necessary, one or two best of seven leg singles matches are played in reverse player order to determine the championship.
A new format came into play in 2023, with 40 Nations competing, with the top four nations automatically entering after the round-robin phase. The finals also changed from set play to legs, hence the increase in figures where a point was awarded for a set win. From 2023 points equal legs.
