Alan Evans

Jun 14, 1949 - Apr 11, 1999 (49 years old) in Rhondda, Glamorgan, Wales, UK

David "Alan" Evans (14 June 1949 – 11 April 1999) was a Welsh professional darts player and former World No. 1 who competed in the 1970s and 1980s.

Evans was one of the early faces of television darts and had some tournament success in the 1970s. By the time that darts had gained big popularity in the early 1980s, Evans's form had faded and he wasn't in the limelight as much as Eric Bristow, John Lowe and Jocky Wilson – who all found more fame and success from the game.
