Biography

Peter Wright (born 10 March 1970) is a Scottish professional darts player who plays in Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) events. Among other major tournaments, he won the PDC World Darts Championship in 2020 and 2022, the 2021 World Matchplay, the 2020 European Championship and the 2017 UK Open and picked up several non-major titles. Although Wright was largely brought up in England, he chooses to represent the country of his birth, Scotland. Before becoming a professional darts player, Wright was a tyre fitter. He is known for his mohican hairstyle, which changes colour each tournament and is created by his wife, a hairdresser. His nickname, "Snakebite", is derived from the designs his wife adds, and not from the snakebite drink: "I just like snakes". From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
