Huntly’s John Henderson has received a silver pin from the PDC in recognition of a nine dart finish.
Masada star Henderson joined the PDC nine-dart club when scoring a perfect leg in a last last 16 clash with Ron Meulenkamp at the Players Championship in September.
Henderson will be in action in Aberdeen next Thursday (February 6) when facing UK Open champion Nathan Aspinall at P&J Live in the opening night of the 2020 Premier League.
North-east tungsten ace Henderson will be the challenger at the Granite City event in front of 8,000 supporters.
Meanwhile Michael van Gerwen has been named PDC Player of the Year for a fifth consecutive year after the PDC Awards for 2019 were presented on Thursday.

Van Gerwen also won the ProTour player of the year award in recognition of his consistency throughout the year away from the TV cameras.
Newly-crowned World Champion Peter Wright scooped a hat-trick of awards, including Televised Performance of the Year for his stunning victory over Van Gerwen to win the World Championship Final.
The Scot has also been recognized by fans and fellow-players alike for his achievements by winning the Fans’ Player of the Year and PDPA Players’ Player of the Year awards.
