Phil 'The Power' Taylor, the unrivaled king of darts, boasts sixteen world championship titles from 1990 to 2013, a record unmatched in the sport. His journey began as a protégé of Eric Bristow, the Crafty Cockney, when he stumbled into Bristow's Burslem pub with a birthday gift of darts. At that time, Taylor was earning just GBP52 a week in a ceramics factory and played infrequently. However, he quickly showcased an extraordinary talent that surpassed even Bristow's skills, leading to over 200 professional tournament victories. This narrative captures a pivotal year in Taylor's life, during which he was twice nominated for BBC Sports Personality of the Year. It chronicles a mix of triumph and disaster, including an unexpected second-round exit from the world championship against young contender Michael Smith and a Christmas spent exhausted from relentless winning. The year also featured an epic Grand Slam semi-final against Adrian Lewis and a royal welcome in Australia. Throughout the ups and downs, including clashes with hecklers and rivalries with stars like Michael van Gerwen, Taylor reflects on his life and determination to maintain his dominance in the sport.
