GERWYN PRICE has made it to the quarter-finals of the World Darts Championship as he strives for his second world title.
The 39-year-old Welshman has had a tough year at the oche, but he has displayed some of his best performance at Ally Pally over the last few weeks.
At the beginning of the year, Price was ranked No 5 in the PDC Order of Merit, but he has now slipped to No 10, with his achievements this year including titles from the Nordic Darts Masters and Australian Darts Masters.
As one of the leading figures in darts, Price initially embarked on his career as a rugby player before making the switch to the oche.
What is Gerwyn Price’s net worth?
The precise amount of Price’s net worth is still a matter of speculation online.
Sources indicate it could be between £1 million and £4 million.
According to the PDC, he has accumulated £480,500 in prize money over the last two years.
Records from the PDPA suggest that his total career earnings have reached £4.26 million.
It is important to note that all winnings are subject to taxes.
Price has also reportedly invested a significant amount of his wealth in real estate, broadening his investment portfolio.
This includes transforming a cafe he once owned into apartments and recently purchasing a pharmacy that he intends to convert into a fish and chips shop.
Additionally, he has invested in greyhound racing.
This year, Price has already secured a minimum of £50,000 for advancing to the quarter-finals of the World Championships.
