"By far the best female player out there" - Mardle and Webster very impressed by Beau Greaves' Grand Slam of Darts performances

Beau Greaves impressed in her debut at the Grand Slam of Darts this week. Ex-pro's turned Sky Sports analysts Wayne Mardle and Mark Webster predict a great future for her.

Greaves lost her final group match 5-4 to Damon Heta, narrowly missing out on qualification for the next round. "I feel for Beau because she was in a good position but she'll be in more good positions over the years let me tell you," Mardle told Sky Sports.

"What a special talent she is. And I still can't get over the fact she's only 19," Mardle continues. "She is experienced, but the more experience she gets on these big stages, she'll only get better."

Webster joins Mardle in this. "She never looked like she was under pressure. She was here to enjoy herself. She missed a match dart and that's how close she came to topping the group. She's by far the best female player out there, followed by Fallon Sherrock. But she'll be back next year and if she keeps enjoying herself she's going to be a threat."

Greaves defends her women's world title at the WDF World Championship early next month.
