The 29th edition of the World Darts Championship will begin on December 15 and in the run-up to the start of this tournament, DartsNews continues to take a look back at some of the best moments and matches from the showpiece tournament.
From 1996 to 2002, Phil Taylor won the world title eight times in a row before John Part finally managed to put an end to this impressive run from 'The Power'.
