Kai Gotthardt prize money
Kai Gotthardt has been paid £27,500 by the 268 darts events on this site, which ranks 218th of the 793 players they paid. The biggest of it was £15,000 at the 2025 PDC World Championship, where Kai Gotthardt lost in the round of 64.
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 £15,000 at the 2025 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.

| All seven | — | £27,500 |
The seven figures add up because none of them contains another: a band is paid once, so £27,500 is seven separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.03% of the £91,450,000 the 268 events paid out between them. The site holds 53 tournaments and Kai Gotthardt has been paid at six of them. The biggest of the 47 that have not paid him are World Matchplay, Grand Slam of Darts and Players Championship Finals.

season running total
2025 is the biggest year of it, £15,000 from two events. We hold no event that paid Kai Gotthardt in 2021, 2022 and 2023, so those columns stand at nothing. The dimmer column behind each year is the running total, which reaches £27,500.
