Ricky Evans Biography

Ricky Evans is one of the most popular and richest Darts Player who was born on July 29, 1990 in Kettering, England, United Kingdom. Ricky Evans, a professional darts player from England, was born 29 July 1990 in Kettering (Northamptonshire).

In any of six qualifying events for the 2014 UK Open, Evans failed to make it past the 128 mark. This resulted in his inability to qualify for the event. Evans’ form improved over the year, qualifying for the last two European Tour events. He beat Jelle Klaasen at the European Darts Grand Prix, beating him 6-3. However, he lost 6-5 to Vincent van der Voort during the second round. At the European Darts Trophy, he was eliminated by Klaasen in the first round, 6-5. Evans reached the 16th round of the 20th and final Players Championship in November. He lost 6-3 to Ian White.

Evans won the qualifier for the 2016 World Championship with a 5–4 victory over Andy Boulton. He played 2010 runner-up Simon Whitlock in the first round and, having trailed 2–0 in sets and 2–0 in legs (surviving two match darts), Evans mounted a comeback to eventually win the match 3–2 with a 130 checkout. However, Evans lost 10 legs in a row in his second round match against Jamie Caven to be knocked out 4–0. A 9–5 victory over Andy Boulton saw Evans play in the fourth round of the UK Open for the first time, but he missed match darts against Darren Webster to lose 9–8 after leading 4–1 early on. A quarter-final appearance came at the seventh Players Championship event (lost 6–2 to Gerwyn Price) and he went one better at the 16th event to reach his first semi-final in nearly three years. He also missed double 12 for a nine darter during the day, before losing 6–4 to Steve West in the last four. These results have seen Evans qualify for the Players Championship Finals and he will face James Wade in the first round.

During the 2017 World Championship, Evans hit a 180 in just 2.16 seconds during his first round match against Michael Smith.

Evans participated in the Qualifying School in 2013 to obtain a card for Professional Darts Corporation events. He was successful on his first day. He reached the quarter-finals in a PDC Pro Tour event less than two months later, defeating Gary Anderson 6-5 in 16 rounds of the second UK Open Qualifier. Then he was defeated by Peter Wright 6-3. He was then able to enter the UK Open second round stage, where he was defeated by Joe Cullen 5-2. Evans reached the final of the World Under-21 World Championship. This was held at the O2 Arena, London. Evans lost 6-1 to Michael Smith. He was able to reach the Grand Slam of Darts with this result, but he lost all three of his Group E matches to Raymond van Barneveld and Mervyn Kings. Tony O’Shea finished bottom of the table.
