That meant “Cool Hand” became the richest-ever Premier League champion.

He won £275,000 for winning the title to add to three nightly wins of £30k in total and picking up gold darts worth £30k for a nine-darter.

Bet UK revealed that this meant the Leeds fan earned a mind-blowing £19,706 per week. That worked out at £1,006 per leg, £9,306 per match and £4,926 per hour.

Teen sensation Littler didn’t do so bad either as runner-up.

Gerwyn Price also had a really successful season, earning a total of £175,000 in prize money.

That breaks down to £10,294 per week, £665 per leg and £6,250 per match.

Price’s average earnings also work out to be higher than Littler’s, despite earning less prize money, as the Welshman played 11 fewer games and more than 100 fewer legs than the superstar.
