Beaton tops list of most Players Championship participations in a row
PDCSunday, 07 July 2019 at 16:28
Steve Beaton has played in an astonishing 236 Players Championship events in a row, it has revealed in statistics compiled by PremiumDartData.
Beaton as a result has played in 118 weekends of ProTour action in a row since Players Championship 22 in 2009. Ian White is just behind by around a year with 202 consecutive events since Players Championship 25 in 2010.
Mark Webster is next with 173 since Players Championship 17 in 2011; this could change though with 'Spider' potentially set to lose his Tour Card at the end of this season.
Brendan Dolan, John Henderson, Jamie Lewis and Joe Murnan are the players who finalise the top seven with participations since 2011 and 2012 for most players.
It is an astonishing statistic and shows once again especially in the case of Beaton, the form he has shown over time that he has been able to play as much as he has over the years.

- Was watching an old World Masters final the other day between Eric Bristow and John Lowe, the crowd respect for both players on throw was first class, not a sound. You can imagine now the idiots who were whistling on De Deckers throw proudly boasting about it on social media. I blame the PDC to a certain extent though doubt they really care as they win regardless of which player wins or loses.Mysstree16-11-2024
- @UndartedWaters I totally agree with your thoughts! I totally respect Kirk but in this instance I was disappointed with his lack of crowd control. I even turned to my husband and said "Could you imagine this happening if Russ Bray was the referee tonight? At least there would have been a crowd admonishment- Ladies and Gentleman please." I so felt for Mike DeDecker...MamaVenus15-11-2024
- Many fans had a sour taste in their mouth by the end of this match. Mike was cruising to victory, playing beautiful darts, when the whistling started in earnest, particularly on his doubles. You could see in Mike's face that it was really affecting his concentration. The referee should have asked for order, just to show that the whistling is unacceptable, and Luke Littler could also have done his part to quieten down the crowd instead of "taking full advantage.:" I put that down to his age though. He needs some good advice on this from his management team and/or more seasoned players. It's got to be about who's best on the night, not who is being harassed by the crowd. Luke Littler played well to get back into the game and win, but it was a hollow victory. If he goes on to win the tournament, that triumph too will be tainted because of this match.
UndartedWaters15-11-2024 - Agree. Van der voort will be the one taking a break when he loses his tour card. Everyone saying about how bad Wright's last 18 months have been, and in that time he's won several Euro tours and the European Championships.Matilda6215-11-2024
- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
