Players Championship events more often than not show an insane standard and these standards were met this past Sunday.
A record four players hit nine darters on the same day to underline this.
It all started with the Dutch youngster Geert Nentjes who whitewashed Mervyn King in the process.
Recent Premier League Contender Chris Dobey was next with him hitting the first of two in front of the streaming boards.
He was in a last leg decider with Dave Prins and claimed the win with the magical 141.

It was then the turn of Dave Chisnall, the champion yesterday underlined his brilliant day by hitting the perfect leg in a 6-2 win over Rowby-John Rodriguez.
And of course Michael van Gerwen had to get in on the act hitting one during his defeat to Jonny Clayton in the Quarter-Finals.
Mighty Mike was the only player to go an unconventional route though with him going T19, T16, D18 (141) for the leg.
Can this standard be kept up next weekend when the Pro Tour returns?

- Luke Littler played incredible darts yesterday in the semi-final and the final, heralding a new era of darts (along with some of the other brilliant young players who are emerging). And yet, at Luke's celebration feast, de Decker's ghost is Banquo to Littler's Macbeth, mournfully looking on.
UndartedWaters18-11-2024 - Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
- I dont like individuals or crowds trying to put any player off when they are trying to check out, how anyone can think its okay for the crowd to whistle or shout as someone is throwing for a double is beyond me but it does seem to have become part and parcel of the modern game. I no longer play now, darts is as good as dead at a local level round my way but when i did play many years ago, no matter how intense the rivalry you never shouted out or whistled when an opponent from the other team was throwing for a double.Mysstree17-11-2024
- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.UndartedWaters16-11-2024
