Rob Cross obtained his PDC Tour Card at the beginning of 2017. Barely a few weeks later, he already won a Players Championship.

Cross won the third Players Championship of the year in 2017. He had then played only 11 matches in the PDC; no one has ever managed to taste glory as quickly as 'Voltage'.

Second in this list is Krzysztof Ratajski. 'The Polish Eagle' did not even have a Tour Card in 2018 and had played only thirteen PDC matches when he won the 21st Players Championship of the year. Notable in that regard was that Ratajski also managed to win the 22nd Players Championship the following day.

Completing the top three is Glen Durrant, who needed just 16 matches to win his first Players Championship in 2019.
