On Tuesday it was three years ago that
Steve Beaton threw a
nine-dart finish against Kirk Shepherd at the
German Darts Open. The perfect leg was shown on PDCTV.
He became the oldest player ever in the PDC with a nine darter in a televised or streamed tournament.
The old record was held by Phil Taylor. The Power was 55 years and 9 days old when he hit a nine-darter at the Sydney Darts Masters in 2015. Beaton was 55 years and 21 days old at the time and improved the record by just 12 days.
