Beau Greaves has shattered yet another record in Leicester this afternoon, as she became the first female player to hit a nine-dart finish in a PDC event.
The three-time World Champion found perfection during her 6-5 Players Championship 6 second round win against Mensur Suljovic at Mattioli Arena.
“I couldn’t believe I’d hit it! I just about hit the treble 19 and then I was quite confident that the double 12 was going in” said Beau to PDC after achieving her feat.
“I couldn’t stop smiling because I couldn’t wait to tell my dad, even though I knew he’d be watching it.
“I’ve narrowly missed hitting one a few times to it was nice to finally hit one. It’s nice to be the first woman to hit one on the PDC ProTour, I’m glad it was on the stream as well.
“It was hard to get back into the game after I’d hit it, I was shaking afterwards. It was nerve-wracking but I managed to get the win in the end.
“I’m enjoying my start to life on the PDC ProTour, I’ve been struggling in patches with a bit of tension in my throw, but I am playing well and enjoying it.
“You’re playing the best players in the world so if you lose a game, it’s just a case of your opponent playing better than you on the day.”
