Maik Kuivenhoven (born 25 September 1988) is a Dutch professional darts player who competes in Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) events. He contested his first PDC ranking final at Players Championship 22 in June 2026. He has reached one PDC European Tour quarter-final, reaching the last eight of the 2020 European Darts Grand Prix.
Career In 2018, Kuivenhoven qualified for his first PDC European Tour event, when he won one of the eight West/South European qualifying slots for the 2018 German Darts Open. He was defeated in the second round. In January 2019, he entered PDC European Q-School attempting to win a two-year Tour Card. He finished seventh on the Order of Merit to win the final card available.
In 2020, Kuivenhoven reached the quarter-finals of the 2020 European Darts Grand Prix before losing to Ian White.
At the end of 2022, Kuivenhoven was outside the top 64 of the Order of Merit but immediately regained his Tour Card at Q-School in January 2023.
Kuivenhoven qualified for the 2023 Players Championship Finals as the 51st seed; he reached the second round by defeating Krzysztof Ratajski before losing to Brendan Dolan in a deciding leg.
Kuivenhoven missed out on qualifying for the 2024 PDC World Championship by £1,000 on the Pro Tour Order of Merit, and failed to qualify for the 2025 edition by £500. This led to him finishing the 2024 season 75th on the Order of Merit, therefore losing his tour card.
Kuivenhoven regained his Tour Card at Q–School in January 2025. He reached his first PDC ranking final at Players Championship 22 in June 2026, where he lost 8–5 to Rob Cross.
