I don't know enough about darts to feel qualified to edit this page, but if there's any past editor watching the women's section needs updated https://www.skysports.com/darts/news/12288/12837134/fallon-sherrock-hits-first-nine-darter-by-a-woman-on-pdc-tour — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.244.100.102 ( talk) 20:05, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
Does the list of televised 9 dart finishes include 9 dart finishes that happened in tournaments that were streamed live? by ( Perfectamundo ( talk) 19:07, 28 January 2014 (UTC)perfectamundo)
Just wanted to say a big thanks to whoever dug out the videos of those 9-darters! Good work.
What about 3xT20, 3xT19, 3xBull?!? Wouldn't this be the hardest/most perfect ever?

There is seemingly conflicting information in this article; a) The first televised nine dart finish was achieved at the World Matchplay championship on October 13, 1984 by John Lowe. b) Phil Taylor ... August 1, 2002 ... It was the first live-televised nine-dart finish on British television. c) Contrary to popular belief, Shaun Greatbatch hit the first ever nine-dart finish during a live televised darts match ... which was broadcasted on Dutch television
a) and b) could both be correct if the distinction is that a) was the first to be recorded and shown on television and b) was the first shown live. c) is presumably incorrect or meant to be specific to the Netherlands. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.253.136.212 ( talk) 09:26, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

I vaguely recall a televised interview where Bobby George claimed to have 'invented' this method of checking out in 9. Does anyone else remember this? I can't find a reference.-- Ykraps ( talk) 08:28, 9 December 2010 (UTC)
It should be noted that those 9-darters happen often in training by many professionals. i think taylor said once he hits them on a daily basis. big non-televised floor tournaments often have them too. they are "rarer" on tv because there are not that much tv-tournaments, especially 10 years ago. - Koppapa ( talk) 06:30, 21 October 2011 (UTC)
I think that we should call dart a game, not a sport. For starters, it is not recognized as an olympic sport. It is also called a game in the darts page. Should it be changed? If we get consensus, then I will change it. RileyBugz Yell at me | Edits 21:58, 22 December 2016 (UTC)

I disagree that the Alan Norris 9-darter in the 2016 Players Championship Finals should be included in a list of televised nine darters. What makes the others on the list notable is that they were broadcast as a part of matches that were being televised in their entirety. The Norris 9 is the only one that was televised only as a 'highlight' of a match which couldn't be seen otherwise. I believe that the list should only include 9-darters that were a part of televised matches.
It seems to me that including the Norris 9 would also mandate that a 9-darter, even if completed in practice or in a local tournament, would merit inclusion in the list simply by virtue of having been filmed and later shown on TV. If a streamed 9-dart finish from a PDC floor event (e.g. MvG's on the Euro Tour earlier this year) was later rebroadcast on TV as a highlight of that tournament, would it be included in this list?

in section "Women's nine-darters", please change the date of 31 November 1995 in the second sentence :-) I don't know when that tournament took place, some dart fan will surely be able to contribute the right date. -- BernieM ( talk) 15:08, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
"A single game of darts (known as a leg) requires a player to score exactly 501 points, ending with either the bullseye or a double." - the bullseye is a double, isn't it? -- KnightMove ( talk) 07:08, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
I see multiple sources where they consider the MODUS Super Series Nine-Darters as televised nines; none of them are considered for this article.
The MODUS Super Series event is broadcast on television through Sporty Stuff TV, but would this be eligible for the criteria as, according to Mastercaller, all the MODUS nine-darters are not considered televised nines but instead streamed ones? Should these nine-darters be added as well? or do they not fit the actual criteria for a televised nine?
These nines would add Conor Heneghan, Darryl Pilgrim, Steve West, Fallon Sherrock, etc.

Please clarify the paragraph in the Prize money section.
"In 2019, a special prize of £100,000 was available to any player who hits two nine-dart finishes at the PDC World Championships, a feat which has never previously been achieved at any World Championship. As such, it didn't happen, and by the end of 2019, all prize money for nine-dart finishes were withdrawn, owing to the ever increasing prize fund for tournaments."
Is it only the PDC that withdrew the prize money for a nine dart finish? ( Fran Bosh ( talk) 23:50, 3 January 2024 (UTC))
I noticed that there is still no proper understanding by some editors of what a televised match actually means. Some people also keep judging whether a nine-dart finish was televised by only looking at whether said nine-darter was televised on UK television. The UK isn't the only country in the world broadcasting darts on TV and indeed some of the listed finished were only televised on Dutch TV. There is also a false practice being applied by making one blanket judgment for all Euro tour events. Just because one event is only streamed on PDC TV, that doesn't mean that it applies to each and every one of them. The Belgian Darts Open for one has always been broadcast live in full by VTM on their VTM2 tv Channel. VTM is Belgium's most important Dutch language commercial broadcaster, not some local TV station, akin to the UK's ITV. They provided that tournament with a full broadcast production including pundits and commentators on the site and on floor interviewers. And it's apparently also broadcast on ViaPlay in the Netherlands. Claiming that those nine-dart finishes weren't televised is quite simply insane! T v x1 15:59, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
