Robert Stefan Eric Cross (born 21 September 1990) is an English professional darts player who competes in Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) events, where he is currently ranked world number nine; he reached a peak ranking of world number two in 2018 and 2019. Nicknamed "Voltage", Cross is a former PDC World Champion, defeating Phil Taylor in the 2018 World Championship final after turning professional less than a year beforehand. He has won three other PDC major titles: the 2019 World Matchplay and the European Championship in 2019 and 2021. Cross has won a total of 21 PDC titles in his professional career, including five World Series of Darts titles.

Before turning professional he reached the last 32 at the UK Open, losing there to Michael van Gerwen, and won four titles on the PDC Challenge Tour in 2016, which earned him his PDC Tour Card.

BDO career

2015

In October 2015, Cross attempted to qualify for the 2016 BDO World Darts Championship, where he was knocked out in the last 64 by Tony Martin. ^[3] He also competed in the 2015 World Masters, losing to Darius Labanauskas in the last 48. ^[4]

PDC career

2016

Cross competed in the 2016 UK Open as an amateur Rileys qualifier; making it to the last 32 before falling to world number one Michael van Gerwen, who achieved a nine-dart finish in the process. ^{[5] [6]} Following this, he competed in the PDC Challenge Tour, winning three of the 16 events and ultimately topping the Order of Merit, consequently earning a Tour Card for the 2017 PDC Pro Tour. ^{[7] [8]}

2017

At the 2017 UK Open, Cross reached the fifth round before being knocked out by the eventual winner Peter Wright. ^[9] The following week, he won his first PDC title by defeating Mervyn King 6–5 in the final of the third Players Championship. ^[10] His first year on the tour continued positively, winning the 12th event with a 6–5 victory over Ian White, who missed five darts for the title. ^[11] Cross then beat Peter Wright 6–2 in the 19th Players Championship in Dublin and quickly added his 4th Players Championship (PC21) with a 6–3 win against Adrian Lewis to move into the top 32 for the first time.

Cross reached the final of two events in the 2017 PDC European Tour, the German Darts Grand Prix and the European Darts Trophy, both times losing to Michael van Gerwen. ^{[12] [13]} He reached his first premier event final in October at the 2017 European Championship, again losing to van Gerwen. ^[14]

2018

Cross made his PDC World Darts Championship debut as the 20th seed. He reached the final at the event, beating Phil Taylor 7–2 on New Year's Day 2018, following wins over Seigo Asada, Michael Smith (in which Cross survived two match darts), John Henderson, Dimitri Van den Bergh and Michael van Gerwen (in which Cross survived six match darts). In the final he defeated Taylor, who had previously announced that he would retire after the tournament, ^[15] 7–2 in sets. ^[16] He is the only player to have survived match darts in two rounds and then go on to win the World title. ^[17] Winning the World Championship meant that he finished at number 3 in the PDC Order of Merit and earned automatic qualification for the 2018 Premier League Darts. ^[18]

Cross was tipped by a few pundits to have an off year as they thought that the pressure of being world champion would get to him, despite this he made a good showing on his Premier League debut making it to the semi-finals. However, he only won one players' championship title in comparison to 2017 where he won 4, he won players' championship 13 by defeating Peter Wright in the final and he won his first World Series event which was the Brisbane Darts Masters by defeating Michael Van Gerwen 10–6 in the final. He had made two previous World Series finals that year: Las Vegas and Shanghai.

2019

Cross at the 2019 European Darts Matchplay

In defence of his world title at the 2019 World Championship, Cross lost to Luke Humphries 4–2 in the fourth round.

Cross made his 3rd major final and 6th televised final at the 2019 UK Open in Minehead. Cross was the eventual runner-up at the tournament, as he lost to Nathan Aspinall 11–5. ^[19]

After finishing 2nd in the league format, Cross went to the O2 in London for the Play-Offs. He took on James Wade in the semi-final and was successful in victory. He then took on World No. 1, Michael van Gerwen in the final, losing 11–6.

He won the World Matchplay, defeating Michael Smith 18–13 in legs in the final. Cross became only the fourth player to ever win the World Championship and World Matchplay (previously achieved by Phil Taylor, Michael van Gerwen and Gary Anderson). ^{[20] [21]} On his way to the final he beat Chris Dobey 10–3, Krzysztof Ratajski 11–5, Stephen Bunting 16–14 and Daryl Gurney 17–15, (from 15–9 down in the semi-finals). ^[22]

At the World Series of Darts Finals, Cross beat Michael Smith and James Wade en route to the final, before eventually succumbing to Gerwyn Price. ^[25] Cross and Michael Smith, representing England, reached the final of the World Cup of Darts, where they were defeated 3–0 by Wales (Gerwyn Price and Jonny Clayton). ^[26]

2022

At the 2022 World Championship, Cross started his campaign with a 3–1 win against Raymond van Barneveld. ^[29] In the next round, he beat Daryl Gurney in a deciding set, finishing the match with a 170 checkout. ^[30] He was defeated 4–3 by Gary Anderson in the fourth round. ^[31]

Cross was unsuccessful in his defence of the European Championship, losing to James Wade 6–5 in the first round. ^[32] Cross reached the final of the Players Championship Finals but lost 11–6 to Michael van Gerwen. ^[33]

2023

At the 2023 World Championship Cross reached the fourth round, losing to Chris Dobey 4–2. ^[34] He was the runner-up at the Masters where he again lost to Dobey. ^[35]

After seven previous losses in PDC European Tour finals, Cross won his first European Tour title at the 2023 European Darts Grand Prix, defeating Luke Humphries 8–6 in the final. ^[36] He also won back-to-back titles on the 2023 World Series of Darts, winning the New Zealand Darts Masters and the New South Wales Darts Masters. ^{[37] [38]}

In October, Cross failed to qualify for the Grand Slam of Darts for the first time in his career after losing 5–2 to Ricky Evans at a PDC Tour Card Holder qualifier.

Personal life

Cross spent the majority of his early life living in Edenbridge, Kent. He was an electrician before turning professional. His nickname, "Voltage", comes from his former profession. ^[50]

In June 2025, Cross was disqualified from being a company director for five years for failing to pay more than £450,000 in taxes. The Insolvency Service found that he had withdrawn over £300,000 from his company that should have gone to creditors. ^[51]
