Robert Grundy | Darts Profile, Stats & Results

Welcome to the Robert Grundy profile on DartsStats.com: a practical, bettor-friendly breakdown of how he plays, which statistics matter most, and how to interpret his results without chasing noise. If you?re researching Robert Grundy for an upcoming match, the aim here is to help you form a clear view of his scoring, finishing and format suitability, then translate that into sensible pre-match checks and in-play reads.

Because many darts matches are decided by small margins (one missed double, one key hold of throw, one sudden purple patch), the best approach is to combine performance trends with the context: opponent style, best-of distance, and whether it?s a floor or stage setting.

Player Snapshot

Full Name and Nickname (If Used)

Full name: Robert Grundy.
Nickname: Not consistently listed or widely used in results coverage. On DartsStats, you?ll typically see him recorded simply as Robert Grundy.

Country and Tour Status

Robert Grundy competes in UK-based and international darts environments where available. Tour status can change season to season (depending on qualification routes, entries and eligibility), so use the competition filter on DartsStats to see whether his most recent volume comes from:

• Floor events (often tighter scheduling, higher match volume, fewer cameras).
• Stage events (more broadcast pressure, longer breaks, different atmosphere).
• Qualifiers and regional opens (variance can be higher due to mixed-standard fields).

Best-Of Formats and Typical Strengths

With many players outside the week-in, week-out TV spotlight, the most useful ?format read? is how their performance holds up as matches get longer:

• Short formats (best-of 7 or 9 legs): reward fast starters and high early scoring; one bad doubling visit can decide the outcome.
• Medium formats (best-of 11?15 legs): smoothing effect; true scoring level shows more reliably.
• Sets formats: momentum swings matter; breaks between sets can either reset a wobble or stall a run.

For Grundy, your most actionable angle is to compare his First 9 Average and Checkout % across short vs medium distances to see whether he wins with early pressure or closing strength.

Playing Style

Scoring Profile (T20 Heavy, Switching, Tempo)

Most modern players are T20-first, but the differentiator is what happens when the bed goes cold. When you?re analysing Grundy?s scoring profile on DartsStats, focus on:

• How often he posts ?big visits? (140+ and 180 frequency) versus steady 100?120 accumulation.
• Switching behaviour: when T20 blocks, does he move early (T19/T18) or ?stay and battle??
• Pressure scoring: look for matches where his opponent averages well and see whether Grundy?s scoring rises to match it.

A helpful quick read is the combination of First 9 Average (opening power) and 180 rate (ceiling). If both are strong, he can create breaks without needing perfect doubling.

Finishing Profile (Preferred Doubles, Checkout Tendencies)

Finishing is where many matches turn. DartsStats? checkout data helps you understand whether Grundy:

• Relies on clean two-dart finishes (e.g., 40, 32, 24) or often needs third-dart cover shots.
• Takes out mid-range checkouts (70?110) often enough to punish opponents? missed doubles.
• Shows particular comfort zones (many players gravitate to D20/D16/D10; verify by looking at his common finishing routes in match logs).

When data is limited for exact preferred doubles, treat it as a tendency rather than a fixed rule. What matters most is whether his Checkout % stays stable when his scoring dips.

Pace and Rhythm Notes

Pace is not just ?fast or slow? ? it?s how repeatable a player?s routine is under stress. If you have match video, compare it to the stats:

• Quick tempo can suit floor events and short formats, but can also bring streakiness.
• Measured rhythm can stabilise doubling, especially late in legs.
• Time between turns (especially on stage) can impact players who rely on uninterrupted flow.

Where possible, cross-check ?pace impressions? against the hard numbers: a player who looks rushed but maintains a solid checkout percentage is less of a risk than one whose doubling collapses when the match tightens.

Key Stats on DartsStats.com

3-Dart Average and First 9 Average

The two headline scoring numbers measure different things:

• 3-Dart Average: overall scoring across the leg; influenced by finishing phase and how many darts are used on doubles.
• First 9 Average: pure opening power; a strong indicator of early pressure and break potential.

If Grundy?s First 9 is notably higher than his overall average, it often signals one of two patterns: either a finishing leak (missed doubles dragging down the 3DA) or a scoring fade after the first three visits. Your job is to check which is true by pairing it with checkout and missed doubles.

Checkout Percentage and Missed Doubles

Checkout percentage can be noisy over small samples, so use it alongside missed doubles:

• Checkout % tells you the conversion rate when he gets a look at a double.
• Missed doubles helps you spot volatility: high misses with decent conversion can simply mean he creates lots of chances; low misses with poor conversion can imply he?s rarely in position to finish cleanly.

When you?re assessing whether Grundy is ?finishing well?, don?t just look at one match. Scan a run of matches and see whether the doubling stabilises around a consistent band or swings wildly from week to week.

180 Rate and High Checkout Trends

Two useful ?ceiling? indicators:

• 180 rate: how often he hits maximums relative to legs played. This helps for totals and leg handicap thinking, because 180s often coincide with breaks or strong holds.
• High checkout trends: look for frequency of 100+ finishes and the common range of his best checkouts. Regular 100+ checkouts can be a sign of composure under pressure and efficient routes.

Remember: a player can win plenty of matches with a modest 180 rate if their doubling is clinical. Likewise, heavy 180 hitters can still lose if they miss too many doubles at key moments.

Legs and Sets Performance Splits

If the competition uses sets, splits become crucial:

• Early legs vs late legs: does his average dip late, or does he finish stronger?
• Deciders (last-leg situations): check whether his performance holds up in deciding legs.
• Against throw vs with throw: even without full ?hold/break? stats, match logs often show whether he converts opportunities when receiving.

For betting analysis, these splits help you avoid overrating a single hot set or a short burst of scoring that doesn?t persist.

Recent Form and Performance Trends

Last 10?20 Matches Summary

The best ?form read? is not win?loss alone, but how the underlying numbers behave across the last 10?20 matches:

• Consistency band: how often does he land within a narrow range of 3DA (for example, repeatedly around the same level rather than bouncing high/low)?
• Finishing stability: do missed doubles cluster in certain matches, or is it a steady drip?
• Opponent-adjusted context: a narrow loss with strong numbers can be more meaningful than a win where the opponent collapses.

If Grundy?s recent run shows improving First 9 and stable checkout percentage, that?s typically a healthier signal than a single big average in one match.

Stage vs Floor Differences (If Relevant)

Not every player shows a meaningful split, but it?s worth checking if Grundy?s data reveals:

• Lower finishing on stage (common if nerves tighten the release).
• Slower starts on stage (First 9 dropping in televised rounds).
• Floor comfort (more consistent averages over busy schedules).

Use stage/floor splits as a risk adjustment, not a verdict. A handful of stage matches can skew perception if the sample is small.

Form Indicators to Watch

Before you commit to any angle, watch for these practical indicators in the data:

• Break conversion: wins that feature timely checkouts against throw.
• Clustered missed doubles: one ?double trouble? match can be random; repeated patterns often aren?t.
• Scoring pressure response: does his average rise when the opponent pushes 95+ (or equivalent standard in that field)?

Career Highlights

Major Titles and Notable Runs

Career highlights vary by competition level and availability of recorded results. The most reliable approach on DartsStats is to identify Grundy?s:

• Deep runs in recognised events (quarter-finals, semi-finals, finals).
• Notable scalps against higher-ranked or in-form opponents.
• Peak performance matches where his 3DA and checkout percentage both spike (a sign of a complete game rather than one-dimensional scoring).

Breakthrough Moments and Milestones

For many players, ?breakthrough? is best measured by sustained improvement rather than one result. Look for:

• A step change in averages across a season.
• Improved doubling (checkout % rising without a big increase in missed doubles).
• Increased match volume and better outcomes against stronger fields.

Rivalries and Signature Matches

Rivalries are often shaped by repeated meetings in the same circuits. If Grundy frequently faces the same opponents, compare head-to-heads with:

• Style contrast (heavy scorer vs steady finisher).
• Format (short legs vs longer legs/sets).
• Venue type (floor vs stage).

?Signature matches? in the data are those where he wins despite being outscored, or loses despite outscoring ? both can reveal where the true edge lies (doubling and timing).

Best Matchups and Risk Factors

Opponents and Styles That Suit

Grundy is more likely to be suited when:

• The opponent is streaky on doubles, giving him chances to capitalise with steady finishing.
• The match is short and he starts quickly (use First 9 trends to validate).
• The opponent is less comfortable under pressure and Grundy?s scoring can apply consistent heat.

Common Weak Spots (If Any)

Rather than guessing, use DartsStats to identify whether any of these show up repeatedly:

• High missed doubles in losses (suggests finishing is the swing factor).
• Low 140+/180 volume when facing higher scorers (can struggle to keep pace in races).
• Slow starts (First 9 notably below his season baseline in early legs).

If you see the same weakness across multiple event types and opponents, it?s more likely to be structural rather than variance.

Format and Distance Effects

Format can magnify strengths and hide flaws:

• Short races amplify variance: one break of throw can decide the match.
• Longer races tend to reward the better underlying scorer and the player with steadier doubling.
• Sets create mini-reset points that can help a player recover from a poor leg.

When evaluating Grundy, check whether his best numbers come in compact formats (suggesting explosive bursts) or longer ones (suggesting repeatability).

How to Use This Profile

What to Check Before a Match

Use this short checklist before forming a view:

• Last 10?20 matches: 3DA trend, First 9 trend, checkout stability.
• Opponent comparison: who has the higher First 9, who has the better checkout %, and who produces more 140+/180s.
• Format/venue: best-of distance, floor vs stage, any stage split.
• Recent ?double trouble? flags: multiple matches with very high missed doubles.

Interpreting Stats Without Overreacting

Darts stats can mislead if you zoom in too far. A few grounding rules:

• One match is not a trend. Give more weight to repeated patterns across several matches.
• Averages can lie if a player missed lots of doubles; pair 3DA with checkout and missed doubles.
• Opponent quality matters. A strong average against weak opposition may not translate when the pace rises.

Tracking Improvements Over Time

If you?re following Grundy across a season, track three ?sticky? indicators:

• First 9 Average: sustained improvement often signals real scoring development.
• Checkout % with stable missed doubles: suggests genuine finishing gains rather than short-term variance.
• Performance in deciders: not for mysticism, but for spotting whether his level collapses under late pressure.

Two concrete betting-style scenarios (for education):

• Scenario 1: Leg handicap in a short race.
  Suppose a match is best-of 11 legs and your pre-match work suggests Grundy starts fast (higher recent First 9) but is only average on doubles. A common way to express that view is a tight handicap, e.g. Robert Grundy -1.5 legs. In score terms, this needs him to win by 2+ legs (for example 6?4 or 6?3). If you instead think finishing volatility could bite, you might avoid a handicap and look at a safer angle such as simply assessing whether the match is likely to go long (e.g. a ?Over 9.5 legs? style line implies a score like 6?4 or 6?5).
• Scenario 2: 180s market based on leg volume and rate.
  Imagine Grundy averages roughly 0.30 180s per leg in recent data and the match is projected to last around 10 legs. That rough expectation is about 3 maximums (0.30 ? 10). In that case, a line such as ?Over 2.5 180s? could be considered if the opponent also plays at a pace that keeps legs competitive (more legs = more visits = more chances). Odds are often displayed in formats like 6/5 or 2.20; treat those as price expressions, not predictions, and only proceed if the statistical case is clear.

FAQs

What is Robert Grundy?s best format?

Use DartsStats splits to compare his results and averages in short races (best-of 7/9/11 legs) versus longer races or sets. His ?best? format is the one where his 3-dart average stays consistent and his checkout percentage doesn?t drop as pressure increases.

What are Robert Grundy?s strongest stats?

The strongest indicators are whichever metrics remain stable across multiple matches. In general, look for a solid First 9 Average (early pressure) paired with a reliable Checkout %. If one is strong but the other swings heavily, expect more variance in results.

What should you look for in Robert Grundy?s recent form?

Prioritise trend and consistency: a steady band of averages over the last 10?20 matches, fewer ?double trouble? matches, and evidence that he can maintain scoring when opponents apply pressure.

Which doubles does Robert Grundy prefer?

Preferred doubles can be inferred from common checkout routes in match logs, but it?s not always definitive. Rather than locking onto one double, focus on whether he finishes efficiently on standard routes (D20/D16/D10 equivalents) and whether missed doubles spike in key moments.

Does Robert Grundy perform better on stage or floor?

Check his stage vs floor splits for 3-dart average, First 9, and checkout percentage. Many players are steadier on the floor due to familiarity and rhythm, but the only reliable conclusion comes from a meaningful sample of matches in each setting.

How often does Robert Grundy hit 180s?

Use his 180 rate on DartsStats (often best viewed per leg or per match) and combine it with expected leg count. A high per-leg rate matters more than one match with a big maximum total.

The Final Throw

Robert Grundy?s profile is most useful when you treat it as a decision framework: start with recent 3-dart average and First 9 to understand scoring power, then check checkout percentage and missed doubles to see whether finishing is a strength or a swing factor. Add context (format length, floor vs stage, opponent style) and you?ll avoid the most common mistake in darts betting analysis ? overreacting to a single hot or cold match.

When you do form an angle, express it in a way that matches the evidence. If the data points to tight matches, think in terms of leg totals and small margins; if it points to consistent superiority, only then consider bigger handicaps. For props like 180s, always tie the rate to expected legs, because fewer legs means fewer visits and fewer chances.

Bet responsibly: set limits, avoid chasing losses, and remember that even strong statistical edges can be overturned by a couple of missed doubles. The goal is long-term decision quality, not short-term excitement.
