Mal Cuming prize money
Mal Cuming has been paid £13,000 by the 268 darts events on this site, which ranks 297th of the 793 players they paid. The biggest of it was £7,500 at the 2023 PDC World Championship, where Mal Cuming 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.

The five figures add up because none of them contains another: a band is paid once, so £13,000 is five 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 Mal Cuming 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 Players Championship Finals.
