This Friday, January 3, 2025, the final of the World Darts Championship will take place. But do you know how much the winner of this edition will pocket? Discover without further delay the prize money of the competition.
Created a little over 30 years ago, the World Darts Championship allows, as its name suggests, the best players on the planet to compete each year. England dominates this sport head and shoulders with no less than 20 titles won, far ahead of the Netherlands and Scotland.
When it was created, the PDC World Dart Championship offered between 15 and 20,000 euros to the winner. But over the years, the prize money has only increased to reach very high sums. Since 2019, we have been talking about more than 600,000 euros for whoever manages to make it to the end of the tournament.
The prize money of the 2025 World Darts Championship
In total, the prize money for the 2025 World Darts Championship amounts to 2.5 million pounds, or 3 million euros. Participants eliminated in the first round leave with a check close to 9,000 euros.
This Friday will take place the grand final between the English prodigy Luke Littler and the experienced Michael van Gerwen, coming from the Netherlands. The loser will still pocket a little more than 240,000 euros, while the winner will be entitled to more than 600,000 euros. A real gold mine, for a sport more than ever in the spotlight.
