Dawson Murschell (born 23 November 1995) is a professional Canadian darts player who plays in Professional Darts Corporation events.
A young North American prospect, Murschell first appeared on TV in 2017, when he took part in the North American Championship, defeating David Cameron, before losing to eventual winner, Willard Bruguier. By qualifying for that tournament, he also qualified for the 2017 US Darts Masters in Las Vegas, where he was drawn against multiple major winner James Wade in the first round. After surviving 6 match darts from "The Machine", Murschell managed to hit double top to claim a big scalp and set up a quarter-final with Wales' Gerwyn Price, which he would go on to lose 8–4.
He returned to the Las Vegas stage 12 months later, where he reached the semi-finals in the North American Championship, before once more upsetting once of the PDC's top players in the first round in the 2018 US Darts Masters, this time defeating Gerwyn Price 6-2. However, Murschell again lost in the quarter-finals, going down 8-5 to two-time World Champion Gary Anderson.
