In most sports, height plays a large part. I'm in Seattle and our Seattle Seahawks football (not-the-outside-the-US-"football") has a "shorter quarterback" that's under 6 feet tall...and the press makes a big deal about it. With darts it really doesn't seem to matter...you have players like Phil Taylor that are 5'9-10" and he's won more championships than anyone.
The reason I made this thread was a surprise during the Barney game against Lewis. One of the commentators mentioned Lewis was 6'3"
I know Barney is also quite tall but no idea he was that Lewis was that tall.....since we (the US people) don't often get to see exhibitions, we never get to see the pros in real life.
Again, this is purely for fun....but I am curious of the top 20.
If you've met, stood next to, or just know for a fact how tall one of the players are, post it.
1 Michael van Gerwen
2 Phil Taylor 5'6"-7" (56-57")
3 Adrian Lewis 6'3" (75")
4 Gary Anderson
5 Peter Wright
6 James Wade
7 Simon Whitlock 6'4" (76")
8 Robert Thornton
9 Dave Chisnall
10 Mervyn King
11 Brendan Dolan
12 Ian White
13 Andy Hamilton
14 Terry Jenkins
15 Wes Newton
16 Raymond van Barneveld 6'3"+? (75"+)
17 Kim Huybrechts
18 Justin Pipe
19 Jamie Caven
20 Vincent van der Voort 6'6" (78")
Anyone else meet some pros/stand next to them...It would be interesting to see the average height for a 20 pro.
