The 2012 Championship League Darts was the fifth edition of a darts competition — the Championship League Darts. The competition was organised and held by the Professional Darts Corporation, with the 2012 edition having a prize fund over £200,000.
The format of the tournament is similar to the Premier League Darts tournament, also organized by the PDC, except it is contested by a larger pool of players who were divided into a number of groups.
Every match could be watched on one of the fifty-three bookmaker websites who broadcast the competition. The tournament was available globally through the internet, except in the United States of America where it could not be shown for legal reasons.
Phil Taylor won his third Championship League title be defeating Simon Whitlock 6–4 in the final.{{cite news|title=Taylor Retains CLD Title In Style|url=http://www.pdc.tv/news/article/knzkaxqqvx8j16lb9fudew13v/title/taylor-retains-cld-title-in-style|publisher=PDC|date=31 October 2012|access-date=1 November 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121103152651/http://www.pdc.tv/news/article/knzkaxqqvx8j16lb9fudew13v/title/taylor-retains-cld-title-in-style|archive-date=3 November 2012|url-status=dead|df=dmy-all}}
Format
The first group consisted of the top eight players from the PDC Order of Merit who were available for the competition. These eight players played each other over the course of a day, receiving two points for each win. All matches were contested over a maximum of 11 legs with a player winning the match on reaching 6 legs. After all players had played each other, the four players with the most points progressed to the semi-finals with the winners of those matches progressing into the final.
The winner of the final progressed to the winners group which took place at the end of the competition. The runner-up, losing semi-finalists and the players finishing fifth and sixth moved into group two, where they were joined by the next three players in the Order of Merit. The format of the second group was the same as the first group with players moving into the third group. In total there were 8 groups before the final group took place.
This format ensures that all players who do not win the group or finish in the last two positions have another chance to qualify for the winners group.
