Three-dart average

{{Short description|Best averages achieved by darts players}} The '''three-dart average''' in [[darts]] is the average of the total score achieved with each [[Darts#Games|turn]] of three [[Dart (missile)|darts]].

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,<ref>{{cite web | url=https://joshsdartistry.com/2015/04/13/kyle-anderson-hits-world-record-darting-average/ | title=Kyle Anderson hits World-Record Darting Average | date=13 April 2015 | publisher=Joshua Gorton | accessdate= 6 March 2019}}</ref> the world record only lists televised matches, which are easy to verify.

==Definition== To compute the three-dart average, the total amount of points scored is divided by the number of darts thrown, and then multiplied by three to find the average score per round. On occasion the one-dart average (the above measure but not multiplied by three) is used instead.

If a player busts their score on their first or second throw in a visit, then that counts as a complete visit and is counted as three darts thrown.

If the winning dart is in the first or second dart thrown in a visit, only those darts are counted as thrown for that visit (the one or two darts not thrown are not counted).

==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 Darts|2016 Premier League]] against [[Michael Smith (darts player)|Michael Smith]].<ref>{{cite web|last1=Charles |first1=Andy |last2=Damerell |first2=Richard |date=28 February 2016 |title=Michael van Gerwen breaks average record in Premier League match |url=https://www.skysports.com/darts/news/12288/10181375/michael-van-gerwen-breaks-scoring-record-in-aberdeen-premier-league-match |work=Sky Sports |access-date=14 March 2020}}</ref><ref name=BBCMVGPL2016>{{cite web |last=Smee |first=Gary |date=26 February 2016 |title=Michael van Gerwen sets record televised average in Premier League |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/darts/356680 |work=BBC Sport }}{{dead link|date=September 2025|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref>

==Highest tournament winning averages==

{| class="wikitable sortable" |+Ten highest tournament winning averages{{efn|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.}} |- !Average !Player !Tournament !Year !Ref |- |111.54 |{{flagicon|ENG}} [[Phil Taylor (darts player)|Phil Taylor]] |European Championship |[[2009 European Championship (darts)|2009]] |rowspan=2|<ref>{{cite web|title=The greatest major darts performance ever?|url=https://www.sportinglife.com/darts/news/the-greatest-major-darts-performance-ever-phil-taylors-2009-european-championship-campaign-is-statistically-top-of-the-charts/193786|work=Sportinglife|accessdate=3 April 2024}}</ref> |- |108.20 |{{flagicon|ENG}} [[Phil Taylor (darts player)|Phil Taylor]] |European Championship |[[2008 European Championship (darts)|2008]]
