Ross Smith

Prolific 180-hitter Ross Smith has emerged as one of darts’ standout performers in 2024.

Nicknamed “Smudger”, Smith reached two European Tour finals and claimed the fourth Players Championship title of his career during a stellar 2024 campaign. A heavy scorer who thrives on momentum, he backed up his form with a run to the semi-finals of the Players Championship Finals later in the season.

Smith made his big breakthrough by winning the 2022 European Championship and remains capable of challenging for major honours whenever he finds his range. With a combination of power scoring and experience, the Dover thrower continues to push towards the sport’s elite.
