Three-dart average

Last updated

The three-dart average in darts is the average of the total score achieved with each turn of three darts.

Contents

Averages are the most cited statistics in matches as they give a rough estimate of a player's form. The longer a match lasts, the harder it is to maintain a high average, as low-scoring legs or missed darts when aiming for a double bring the average down.

While there have been match averages of over 130 in floor tournaments, [1] the world record only lists televised matches, which are easy to verify.

Definition

To compute the average score of a dart the total amount of points scored is divided by the number of darts thrown. This is sometimes used and called the one-dart average. The three-dart average then is just that number multiplied by three.

When a Player Busts on the First Dart of a Throw:

The bust counts as a complete throw (i.e., 3 darts) even though only one dart is physically thrown. The remaining two darts in that turn are considered "used" but not scored because the score for the turn is zero.

When a Player Wins the Leg on the First Dart of a Throw:

If the winning dart is the first dart of a turn, only that dart is counted as thrown for that throw. The other two darts are not counted since they were not thrown.

History

Michael van Gerwen is the current world record holder for a televised match with a three-dart average of 123.40 thrown in the 2016 Premier League against Michael Smith. [2] [3]

Peter Wright holds the record for highest Professional Darts Corporation live streamed match average (123.53), at Players Championship 29 in 2019.

Bobby George was the first player to throw an average of over 100 on television during the 1979 News of the World Darts Championship final against Alan Glazier.

Luke Littler is the current world record holder for highest three-dart average in a set at a PDC World Darts Championship with a three-dart average of 140.91 thrown in the final set of his 2025 PDC World Championship second round match against Ryan Meikle. [4] The record was previously held by Gerwyn Price with a 136.64 three-dart average in the sixth set of the 2021 PDC World Championship final against Gary Anderson. [5]

    Notes

    1. ↑ Score in sets not legs
    2. ↑ These tournament averages (TMA) were calculated by adding up the match averages and then dividing by the number of matches. The "true" tournament averages — which would be calculated by adding up the points scored divided by total darts thrown and multiplying by 3 (3DA) — may differ, but cannot be accurately calculated for most tournaments as this data is unavailable. For example, Michael van Gerwen had a TMA of 106.37 in the 2017 PDC World Darts Championship, but his 3DA over the whole tournament was 107.06.
