About Jocky Wilson
- John Thomas "Jocky" Wilson (22 March 1950 – 24 March 2012) was a Scottish professional darts player from Kirkcaldy, Fife, Scotland.
- After turning pro in 1979, he quickly rose to the top of the game, winning the World Professional Darts Championship in 1982, then again in 1989.
- Wilson competed in all major darts tournaments of the era and won the British Professional Championship a record four times between 1981 and 1988. A contemporary and rival of Eric Bristow, Bob Anderson and John Lowe, Wilson's ungainly appearance and rough-hewn lifestyle belied his prowess in the sport.
- He was dogged by health problems, however, and suddenly retired from the game on 23 December 1995.
- He withdrew from public life, and was rarely seen in public or gave interviews before his death in March 2012.
