Christopher Kempf, in charge of all kinds of statistics and data at the PDC, has brought out a striking new statistic.
For example, Gerwyn Price appears to be most accurate on double 12. Price threw to this double a whopping 222 times in 2023 and 2024 and hit just under 50%.
Double twelve represents less than 5% of all finishing doubles in darts, but its importance to the game is still quite significant. After all, more than 80% of the successful nine darters in history (for which the route is known) have resulted in a double 12 finish.

Just outside the top four we find Raymond van Barneveld with 44%

- I might actually enter this next year,for ÂŁ5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024
