The Players Championship Series finished this past weekend with Krzysztof Ratajski claiming a double in Barnsley.
As a result Ratajski becomes the twelfth ProTour double winner since 2005. He becomes the third to do so this year with Michael van Gerwen twice and Gary Anderson completing the feat.
It all started back in 2005 where Adrian Lewis was the first player to do it followed by of course Phil Taylor. Taylor dominates the list but the likes of Wes Newton and Jamie Caven are also in the list.

- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
