John O'Shea prize money
John O'Shea has been paid £12,250 by the 268 darts events on this site, which ranks 306th of the 793 players they paid. The biggest of it was £7,500 at the 2023 PDC World Championship, where John O'Shea 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 £7,500 at the 2023 PDC World Championship 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 |
|---|---|---|
| PDC World Championship 2023 | Last 96 | £7,500 |
| Dutch Darts Championship 2023 | Last 48 | £1,250 |
| UK Open 2023 | Last 128 | £1,000 |
| Players Championship Finals 2022 | Last 64 | £2,500 |
| All four | — | £12,250 |
The four figures add up because none of them contains another: a band is paid once, so £12,250 is four separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.01% of the £91,450,000 the 268 events paid out between them. The site holds 53 tournaments and John O'Shea has been paid at four of them. The biggest of the 49 that have not paid him are World Matchplay, Grand Slam of Darts and World Grand Prix.
