Beau Greaves capped off the 2026 PDC Women’s Series season in record-breaking style on Sunday, as Vicky Pruim confirmed her World Darts Championship qualification in Wigan.
Despite claiming back-to-back titles on Saturday, Greaves raised the bar even further in Sunday’s double-header, producing a historic run of performances to clinch the Event 23 crown.
The 22-year-old recorded an astonishing 98.75 tournament average across her seven matches – marking the highest event winning average in PDC Women’s Series history.
Greaves opened Sunday’s proceedings with a quartet of 4-0 victories, featuring 100.2 and 103.66 averages in statement wins over Jody Hancock and Steph Clarke.
Having also dispatched Ruby Grey and Rebecca Allen in four straight legs, Greaves’ unblemished run of whitewashes eventually came to an end in her quarter-final clash against Gemma Hayter.
The Doncaster darter ran out a 5-2 winner against Event 22 runner-up Hayter, and she maintained her charge with a 102.56 average in her semi-final demolition of Fallon Sherrock.
Greaves then rounded off her irrepressible campaign with a 5-3 victory against Jade Gofford, averaging north of 101 following a mid-match blitz that saw her win three successive legs in 12, 13 and 14 darts.
Gofford also performed superbly to pocket the £1,000 runner-up prize, overcoming Laura Turner, Rhian O’Sullivan and Lisa Ashton in advancing to her maiden Women’s Series final.
However, Greaves then capped off a flawless weekend with Event 24 glory in Sunday’s second event, sealed with a 5-2 victory against Italian trailblazer Aurora Fochesato.
The 20-year-old became the first Italian player to compete in a Women’s Series final, but Greaves ultimately proved too strong, storming to a record-extending 63rd title on the circuit.
The three-time Women’s World Matchplay champion surrendered just three legs in claiming the title, sweeping aside Laura van den Berg, Sara Walton, Vicky Martin and Lauren Bloomfield in reaching the last eight.
There, Greaves overcame Allen for the second event in succession, before following up a semi-final whitewash of Kirsty Hutchinson by accounting for Italian prospect Fochesato.
Greaves will be unable to compete on the PDC Women’s Series circuit in 2027 if she establishes herself in the world’s top 64, although she is confident of a bright future for the women’s game.
Sunday’s double-header also saw the race for World Darts Championship qualification culminate in Wigan, with Pruim claiming the final spot on offer via the 2026 Women’s Series rankings.
Pruim will become the first Swedish woman to compete at Alexandra Palace, and she will be joined in the sport’s flagship event by Greaves, Ashton, Sherrock and Hayter.
Ashton, meanwhile, will compete alongside Greaves in next month’s Grand Slam of Darts, as the highest-ranked non-qualified player on the 2026 Women’s Series rankings.
