Leonard Gates – New WDF World #1

Updated: June 4, 2025

The latest WDF rankings being issued, and history has been made. With Texan Leonard Gates topping the list, we have the first-ever American male World #1! An impressive run of form has seen ‘Soulger’ move ahead of the Dutch pairing of Jimmy van Schie and Corne Groeneveld.

As if first place wasn’t enough, we have three more men in the Top 10, with Jason Brandon (6), Alex Spellman (7), and David Fatum (10) all following closely.
