Four-midable Beau Greaves dominates on PDC Women’s Series return

Beau Greaves made history by winning four consecutive events on her return to PDC Women’s Series action in Hildesheim.

The reigning Women’s World Champion, who last appeared in the PDC Women’s Series in 2020, reeled off an incredible 24 consecutive victories to mark a flawless weekend at Halle 39.

The 18-year-old sensation picked up £4,000 in prize money, surging to fourth in the Women’s Series Order of Merit in the process.

She is now just £1,800 adrift of the provisional qualification places for the 2022/23 World Darts Championship despite missing the opening 12 events of the year.

Greaves, who has dominated the WDF Women’s circuit this year, made an immediate statement of intent by winning Event 13 on Saturday, defeating Lorraine Winstanley in the Last 16 and thrashing Mikuru Suzuki 5-1 in the final.

The Doncaster ace then repeated the feat in Event 14 later in the day, starting with three consecutive whitewashes before edging out Germany’s Stefanie Rennoch 4-3 in the Quarter-Finals and overcoming Laura Turner 5-2 in the Semi-Finals.

A swift rematch saw Greaves again deny two-time World Champion Suzuki in the final, this time by a 5-2 score-line with an average of 94.2.

The teenager picked up from where she left off when the action resumed on Sunday, kicking off Event 15 with whitewashes of Tharsissia Werinussa and Turner, before surviving a match dart to deny Winstanley.

Greaves then overcame Priscilla Steenbergen and Deta Hedman to set up a third consecutive final against Japan’s Suzuki.

The pair exchanged the opening six legs of a high quality contest, before Greaves registered back-to-back 12-darters to seal the deal, taking out 161 for the title to prevail with a 95.5 average – the highest of the weekend.

Greaves began her quest for the quartet with routine wins over Britta Gabriel, Sharon Straatsma-Pul and Roos van der Velde in Event 16.

She then saw off Rhian Griffiths and Katie Sheldon 4-1 and 5-2 respectively to set up a show-down with Women’s World Matchplay runner-up Aileen de Graaf in the final.

Legs of 13 and 14 darts handed Greaves a commanding start, but Dutch ace De Graaf remained in touch at just 4-3 behind.

Greaves, however, landed her fourth 180 of the match and took out 73 to complete an unprecedented clean sweep.

The top two players from the final Women’s Series Order of Merit will compete in the 2022/23 World Darts Championship, with Ashton now assured of a return to Alexandra Palace in December.

Ashton, winner of seven Women’s Series titles in 2022, will also feature in November’s Grand Slam of Darts alongside Sherrock, as she now cannot be caught by De Graaf in third spot.

The fifth and final weekend of this year’s PDC Women’s Series takes place at Wigan’s Robin Park Tennis Centre from October 29-30.
