Шаблон:Infobox darts player Graeme Stoddart (born 30 July 1959) is an English former professional darts player who played in Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) events. His nickname was Shark.
Career
Stoddart represented Holland in the 1984 European Cup. He came to prominence after being invited from the WDC rankings for the inaugural WDC World Darts Championship in 1994. He was drawn in Group 8, where he defeated Jocky Wilson, before being knocked out in the final group match by the eventual champion, Dennis Priestley.
He entered many majors in the early years of the WDC/PDC, eventually reaching the quarter-finals of the 1998 World Grand Prix, beating Paul Lim, and where he lost to Rod Harrington. He hit a 9-dart finish in the Swiss Open in 2000 (with a set of borrowed darts after leaving his set at home), which was the 2nd recorded in the PDC, after Ronnie Baxter had hit the first in the 1999 Antwerp Open. In 2001, history was created: it was the first year a lady, Gayl King from Canada, entered the WC; she lost 1–3 against Stoddart.
Stoddart won the 2003 Amsterdam Open defeating Bert Vlaardingerbroek of Netherlands.
His last appearance at a PDC event was at a Players Championship event in Scotland in 2009. Stoddart retired from the PDC in 2013 due to health reasons.
