There have been 72 televised nine-dart finishes in the history of the sport, with 70 of them coming since 2002.
John Lowe hit the historic first way back in 1984, six years before Paul Lim's iconic effort at the Lakeside, while the PDC had to wait until 2002 for Phil Taylor to open their account.
In total only 32 different players have achieved the perfect leg on TV so who have done it the most?
Paul Nicholson ranks the five most prolific players and some of these will probably add to their tallies in the near future...
