Aaron Hardy prize money
Aaron Hardy has been paid £3,000 by the 268 darts events on this site, which ranks 495th of the 793 players they paid. The biggest of it was £2,000 at the 2026 Austrian Darts Open, where Aaron Hardy lost the first match.
Every figure here is a single payment. A darts tournament pays for where the run ended and not for each round on the way to it, so the £2,000 at the 2026 Austrian Darts Open is one payment with nothing behind it. That is the opposite of a football run, where a club collects again at every round it reaches.
Every payment
Where each run ended, and what the band paid for it
| EVENT | FINISH | PAID |
|---|---|---|
| Austrian Darts Open 2026 | Last 48 | £2,000 |
| European Darts Matchplay 2015 | Last 48 | £1,000 |
| All two | — | £3,000 |
The two figures add up because none of them contains another: a band is paid once, so £3,000 is two separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.00% of the £91,450,000 the 268 events paid out between them. The site holds 53 tournaments and Aaron Hardy has been paid at two of them. The biggest of the 51 that have not paid him are PDC World Championship, World Matchplay and Grand Slam of Darts.

season running total
2026 is the biggest year of it, £2,000 from one event. We hold no event that paid Aaron Hardy in 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each year is the running total, which reaches £3,000.
