The 48 matches in the group stage of the
Grand Slam of Darts made for a new record. A record number of 180's were thrown.
No less than 197 times the highest possible score was thrown in the group stage of this Grand Slam of Darts. That is a reasonable improvement on the record from 2017, when 188 maximum scores were produced.
Ross Smith was responsible for the most 180-scores in the group stage with fourteen, no fewer than nine of which came in his match against Michael van Gerwen.
