Players that have
Lived off of 1 good result?
Bit harsh i suppose to start this one with Keith Deller, but he has kinda really hung on and made the most of that 138 finish

Dell boy is still one of the busier ones on the exbo circuit, himself and Bristow put on a good show, usually with Brissy throwing the toys out of the pram

Re: Players that have
Kirk Shepherd - although could you call what he's getting from darts at the moment a living?

Re: Players that have
He did dicie in 99.
So I guess technially on mbdo majors he has 2 so might be exempt.
As for kirk I think he is a definate contender, although that said a lot was expected of him being a former youth masters champion, not just once but 3 times I believe

Hard to comment whether he would have made a living based on his win due to his illness and absence from the game. The forgotten man of darts among people who don't follow it as closely as we do.
Andy Fordham
Was making a comfortable living from darts in tournaments and more importantly the exhibition circuit for years before he won Lakeside.
Les Wallace
Exactly how is this guy making a living from darts, Gaz?
Steve Beaton
Making a comfortable living from the pro-circuit whilst not setting the darts world alight. Had he not won Lakeside, this would still be the case.

Re: Players that have
I though Kirk had given up on the pro tour.
He won prize money of £14,315 in 2011 but £6,000 of that was in the PDC World Champs last January.
Anyone know what he's up to these days?

Re: Players that have
The question states: lived off one good result.
Shepherd is not living off his final appearance.

Ps. Re les Wallace. He won the masters in the same year, so that's 2 wins. Rules him out.

Re: Players that have
Deller so far is the only one i think that comes into it. So far that is.
Kirk isnt doing much on the exbo side of it.

Tony David had a flukey year and whether he was sick or not won fuck all else major wise.
If Les Wallace want to piss it up against the wall then thats his choice but he won a single world title and did nothing of note else but like fordham a second rate masters
Steve Beaton a mid card jobber elevated to number 1 due to every living champion in history fucking off elsewhere....another that won fuckall since.
Andy fordham a fat cunt that picked up 2 bdo majors in a depleted field before sliding in to obscurity.
so run along you thick fat cunt....or in your case walk,

Re: Players that have
I read your question, Dicie, as people whose living in darts is attributed back to one major event where they won / got lucky / whatever you want to call it.Dicie wrote:Is Paul Nicholson falling into this bracket?
Thus, Deller is certainly in this bracket.
Gaz's list, Shepherd and now Nicholson do not fall into this bracket, if I have interpreted your question correctly.
These people either are
a) no longer earning a living in darts or
b) earning a living which they would have done whether or not they'd had their big moment.
It's a really tough one to answer and I can't think of anyone excpet Deller and maybe to an extent, Harrington who won two Matchplays and made a couple of finals elsewhere, I think.

But nico's players champ win has seen him grow, and gain alot of exbo work, or if you like his run ins with taylor has done this. Would he have gotten the same amount of work if he hadnt them wun ins or won that PC event

Oh, so now we're hypothesising. Gets even tougher then in that case.
