Last Thursday the Premier League Darts visited Aberdeen. This city is a historic playing venue in the competition.
Michael van Gerwen threw a 123.4 average during the 2016 Premier League Darts in his match against Michael Smith. To this day, that average still stands as the highest TV average ever.
Thanks to two 10-darters, two 11-darters and two 12-darters, Van Gerwen rushed to a 6-0 lead in record time. His average at that moment was 136.64.
In the seventh leg the Dutchman got three match darts, but missed them all. His average dropped below 130. Smith took the leg with a 116 finish and saved his blushes. Van Gerwen ended the match with a 16-darter, which brought his average up to 123.40.

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
