Who won the 2015 PDC World Darts Championship final 7–6 against Phil Taylor?

Gary Anderson won the 2015 PDC World Darts Championship final 7–6 against Phil Taylor.

The final was played at Alexandra Palace in London on 4 January 2015. Anderson, a Scottish player known as “The Flying Scotsman,” defeated 16-time world champion Phil Taylor in a match that went the full distance of 13 sets.

Anderson had previously reached two world championship finals but lost both. His victory in 2015 was his first PDC world title and confirmed him as one of the leading players of his generation. He retained the championship the following year by defeating Adrian Lewis.

The 7–6 score refers to sets, not legs or individual darts. PDC World Championship matches use sets made up of legs, so a final scoreline can look different from the leg totals reported in match statistics.
