Greaves first woman to hit nine-darter on PDC ProTour
Beau Greaves “couldn’t believe it” when she made history by becoming the first woman to land nine darts on the PDC ProTour.
The 22-year-old produced the perfect move during her Players Championship 6 match against Mensur Suljovic in Leicester.

After consecutive 180s, Greaves struck out 141 with a triple 20, a triple 19 and a double 12.
“I couldn’t believe I was going to make it,” she said. “I just missed hitting one a few times, so it was nice to finally be able to hit one. It’s nice to be the first woman to hit one on the PDC ProTour.”
She then secured a 6-5 victory by winning the final deciding match, but was beaten 6-3 in the round of 16 by David Sharp, who had earlier knocked out former world champion Peter Wright.
Doncaster’s Greaves have dominated the women’s series in recent years and beat Luke Littler en route to the World Junior Championship final, before losing a tight first round encounter with Daryl Gurney at the PDC World Darts Championship in December.
