Highest career averages
The three dart average in darts is the average score achieved with three darts thrown. Averages are the most cited statistics in matches as they give a rough estimate how well the player played. The longer a match game lasts, the harder it is to maintain a high average as low scoring legs or missed darts at a double bring the average down. While there have been match averages of over 130 in floor tournaments, the world record only lists televised matches, which are easy to verify. Michael van Gerwen is the current world record holder for a televised match with an average of 123.40 thrown in the 2016 Premier League against Michael Smith. This record was beaten by Peter Wright at players championship 29 in 2019 with an average of 123.5 which is the highest ever live streamed official Professional Darts Corporation average but doesnt count as a televised average as it was streamed online. Bobby George was the first player to get over 100 average on television during the 1979 News Of The World Darts Championship final against Alan Glazier
