Kevin Painter prize money
Kevin Painter has been paid £81,750 by the 268 darts events on this site, which ranks 118th of the 793 players they paid. The biggest of it was £17,000 at the 2017 PDC World Championship, where Kevin Painter lost in the round of 32.
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 £17,000 at the 2017 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
The 21 figures add up because none of them contains another: a band is paid once, so £81,750 is 21 separate amounts rather than a running total. It is 0.09% of the £91,450,000 the 268 events paid out between them. The site holds 53 tournaments and Kevin Painter has been paid at eleven of them. The biggest of the 42 that have not paid him are World Matchplay, Grand Slam of Darts and World Grand Prix.
