Michael van Gerwen has achieved 30 official nine-darters in PDC tournaments, solidifying his position as the undisputed king of the perfect leg.
What is a nine-darter?
A nine-darter is a rare feat in darts, requiring a player to complete a leg in just nine darts, showcasing maximum precision and skill under pressure.
Michael van Gerwen's closest rival is Phil Taylor, who has 22 nine-darters to his name.
How does Van Gerwen's record compare?
Van Gerwen's record is significantly ahead of the rest, with Dave Chisnall in third place with 15 nine-darters, and Adrian Lewis following with 13.
James Wade and Simon Whitlock have also reached double figures, with 11 perfect legs each.
Who else is on the list?
Raymond van Barneveld and Gary Anderson share the next spot, with 10 nine-darters each, demonstrating their exceptional class and talent in the sport.
A group of five players, including Michael Smith, Ian White, Ross Smith, Gerwyn Price, and Josh Rock, have reached the mark of nine perfect legs.
Josh Rock's presence on the list is particularly notable, given his relatively early career stage, and he has ample time to climb further up the ranking.
The achievement of a nine-darter remains one of the most impressive feats in darts, requiring not only precision but also the ability to remain flawless under heavy pressure.
Michael van Gerwen's exceptional status in PDC history is once again underlined by his 30 perfect legs, making him the most successful player ever in this regard.
