Wright first player to reach landmark in Players Championship tournaments

Peter Wright is the first player to breach the £500,000 barrier in Players Championship tournaments in terms of Prize Money won.

Wright has taken 321 Players Championship tournaments as per Premium Dart Data to reach this point with £507,550 banked by 'Snakebite'.

Albeit, his number of ProTours is vastly more than those also in the top five with Michael van Gerwen likely the next to break it with £483,200 won by the Green Machine for 275 tournaments.

This is the same as James Wade who has £423,775 and Ian White who has £376,550 with Gary Anderson in between on £394,400.
