how much do you get for a 9 darter in the premier league
In the PDC Premier League Darts, hitting a nine-darter earns you a custom set of 18-carat gold darts valued at £30,000, sponsored by BetMGM.
This prize has been consistent for recent seasons, including 2026, and can be won multiple times by the same player across the 17-week league phase and playoffs. Unlike TV specials like the World Championship (which offers £60,000 cash historically), the Premier League opts for this unique, bespoke trophy from Humphrey and Hawkins instead of straight cash.

Recent Nine-Darter History
- Last year (2025) saw a record five nine-darters , with Gerwyn Price hitting two to lead all-time (five career PL nine-darters); Phil Taylor has three.
- All-time: 19 nine-darters in 21 seasons, by 10 different players.
- Imagine the roar of 4,000 fans as Price nailed his fifth—pure electric tension, turning a league night into legend.
This £30k gold set isn't just bling; it's a collector's item players like Price cherish, potentially auctioned later for cash value. Forums buzz about its "most expensive darts ever" status, though some fans prefer cash payouts. As of February 2026, no nine-darters reported yet this season—will Littler or Humphries claim it first?
TL;DR: £30,000 worth of 18ct gold darts per nine-darter—no cash, but iconic prestige.
