Darts players are amongst the wealthiest sporting stars on the planet - just winning this year’s World Championship title earns you a hefty million quid.
It’s a sport which has seen prize money soar in recent years thanks to television and sponsorship deals, with darters’ earnings dwarfing those of previous legends of the game such as Eric Bristow and Jocky Wilson.
Last year saw Luke Humphries come close to becoming the first player to win more than £2 million in a single season, while current world number one Luke Littler is already a millionaire despite having only played professionally for a couple of years.
It is certainly a golden age for the bank balance of professional darts players - with prize money continuing and thousands of spectators packing into arenas most weeks to enjoy the sport (and a couple of beers).
And the prospect of the rivalry between Lukes Littler and Humphries looks likely to enthral fans for years to come.
They both appear in this - the list of the 17 highest earning darters of all time.
