With her he has three step-children: Adam, Sarah and Vicky. In his hometown he operated with his wife, the Skylark pub, which has now been sold, so that Hamilton can fully devote his darts career.

He began playing darts competitively at the age of 16 but took 20 years off due to confidence issues. The World Championship saw Hamilton gain revenge for his defeat to Anderson last year with a 3—2 first round win. He also knocked out Terry Jenkins 4—1 in the subsequent round. However, Hamilton fell to eventual winner Phil Taylor in the third round losing 4—0. Hamilton did manage to gain a share of the prize for highest three-dart checkout by hitting a finish, a feat matched by Taylor.

Hamilton reached the quarter-finals of the Las Vegas Desert Classic before being eliminated by eventual runner-up Raymond van Barneveld 3—1. He had defeated Kevin Painter 6—4 and enjoyed a comprehensive 3—0 victory over Matt Clark in the prior rounds. Hamilton made his Winter Gardens debut at the World Matchplay tournament.

He sprang something of a surprise in round one by thrashing number four seed Peter Manley 10—2 and then overcame Adrian Lewis in the second round, the duo produced a thrilling match that eventually saw Hamilton triumph 15— However Taylor, a seven time World Matchplay champion, eliminated Hamilton 17—11 in the semi-finals.

Hamilton reached the semi-finals of the PDC World Championship before bowing out 6—0 to eventual runner-up Taylor. He hit 46 s during the tournament, second only to the overall winner Raymond van Barneveld. Hamilton also made a big impact in the inaugural US Open by winning through to the semi-finals where he was defeated by Van Barneveld. Another semi-final soon followed at the World Darts Trophy, but Hamilton fell agonisingly short of reaching his first major final as he was edged out 6—5 by Gary Anderson.

His performance at the World Championship helped him gain a wildcard place into the Premier League Darts, where he made his first appearance. On the first night he beat James Wade 8—5, but then did not win another game until the eighth fixture of the campaign which included three successive defeats.

However, Hamilton turned his form around and went into the last round of matches knowing a win coupled with results going his way would see him into the play-offs. Hamilton thrashed fellow debutant Kevin Painter 8—1 and did qualify for the play-offs by finishing 3rd in the league. He was unbeaten in the last five matches of the season and played Whitlock in the semi-finals, against whom he drew 7—7 and then beat 8—4 during the league stage.
