Michael van Gerwen is undoubtedly one of the greatest darts players of all time and continues to dominate the scene every year. As one of the world’s best darts players and a true legend in the sport, what is Michael van Gerwen’s net worth and career earnings?
Michael van Gerwen Net Worth
Michael van Gerwen is one of the most recognisable names in darts and the Dutchman is widely known worldwide – even to people who aren’t fans of the sport!
The 34-year-old is a three-time PDC World Champion and was the No. 1 ranked player in the world for seven years straight from 2014-2021 before being de-throned to second place.
Having pocketed millions of pounds from his darts career and his business ventures away from the oche, it’s fair to say that ‘Mighty Mike’ has built up quite the fortune.
As of today, it is estimated that Michael van Gerwen has a net worth of £6 million (source: The Sports Grail).
Van Gerwen began playing darts at the age of 13, winning the 2006 World Masters at 17 and throwing a nine-darter in the 2007 edition – becoming the youngest player to do both.
He is undoubtedly one of the most successful darts players of all time. Not only that, but some fans even have him above the legendary Phil Taylor in their overall rankings. Regardless of whether he is the best darts player ever or not, one thing that is certain is that he is a multi-millionaire.
‘MVG’ also has a nice collection of expensive cars, as well as boasting an extensive real estate portfolio. Not only that, but MVG is a fan of highly expensive clothes such as Stone Island, proving that he likes the finer things in life.
Van Gerwen currently sits in second on the PDC Order of Merit with over £1 million won in the last two years, trailing only Michael Smith and ahead of Luke Humphries.
Michael van Gerwen Career Earnings
Darts superstar Michael van Gerwen has earned over £11 million in his darts career to date.
The 34-year-old has already won a significant amount of money so far and his career is still in the early stages. We’ll probably still be looking at Van Gerwen as one of the best in the game in 10 and 20 years’ time.
Van Gerwen’s biggest prizes have come from the World Championship. He won his first world title in 2014, beating Peter Wright in the final to claim the £250,000 prize. The ‘Green Machine’ then won another in 2017, pocketing £350,000 and again in 2019 where he took home £500,000.
He is the second-most successful player in PDC history, trailing only Phil Taylor. He has won the most PDC Pro Tour events and been champion of 159 singles titles worldwide. We may never see another player like Van Gerwen, a truly generational talent.
Given the amount of tournaments he has won around the world and how impressive he is on the dart board, it comes as no surprise to learn that ‘MVG’ has earned millions of pounds over the years. Hence why he has an astronomical net worth as well.
