Best averages achieved by darts players

The **three-dart average** in [darts](/source/Darts) is the average of the total score achieved with each [turn](/source/Darts#Games) of three [darts](/source/Dart_(missile)).

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 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](/source/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](/source/2016_Premier_League_Darts) against [Michael Smith](/source/Michael_Smith_(darts_player)).[2][3]

[Gary Anderson](/source/Gary_Anderson_(darts_player)) holds the record for highest [Professional Darts Corporation](/source/Professional_Darts_Corporation) live streamed match average (123.83), at Players Championship 15 in 2024.

[Bobby George](/source/Bobby_George) was the first player to throw an average of over 100 on television during the 1979 [News of the World Darts Championship](/source/News_of_the_World_Darts_Championship) final against [Alan Glazier](/source/Alan_Glazier).

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

## Notes

1. **[^](#cite_ref-36)** Score in sets not legs

1. **[^](#cite_ref-54)** 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](/source/2017_PDC_World_Darts_Championship), but his 3DA over the whole tournament was 107.06.
