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'.
In an absolute thriller, the Canadian managed to win the PDC World Darts Championship for the first time. Part won 7-6 after thirteen sets thanks to a 77 finish in the final set.

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
