"I am annoyed! I was annoyed” – Frustration for Beau Greaves after end of impressive winning run on PDC Women's Series

After months of invincibility, Beau Greaves’ remarkable unbeaten run on the PDC Women’s Series has come to an end. The Englishwoman lost for the first time since April 2025, bringing her streak of 114 wins — worth seventeen consecutive titles — to an abrupt halt.

The player who stopped her was Fallon Sherrock. At the fifth event last weekend, 'The Queen of the Palace' produced a superb display with a 102.12 average and won convincingly 4-1. It was a defeat that, as Greaves herself admitted, left little room for debate.

Greaves said she hit a high level, but simply had to acknowledge her opponent was better. “I knew at some point I was most likely going to lose,” Greaves said matter-of-factly. “To be fair, Fallon was unbelievable, so I can’t even say I didn’t play well. I played really good. She was just magic.”

The numbers back that up. Sherrock’s average left 'Beau ’n’ Arrow' with few answers, and Greaves accepts that the one leg she won was already the maximum achievable. “To be fair, I should have lost 4-0 to Fallon. I was lucky to get a leg and she averaged 102. It was one of those games where I thought I can’t do anything about it, just move on.”

Yet there was no sense of relief afterwards, but irritation instead. “Laura Turner asked me the other day and I was like, I am annoyed! I was annoyed.”

Anyone who thought the defeat would puncture her dominance was mistaken. Greaves immediately straightened her back and hit back with tournament wins at the next three events.

That resilience didn’t come from nowhere. Since earning her Tour Card, Greaves says she has also faced her share of challenges away from the oche. “I’ve had my struggles on stream. I think when I started my Tour Card, it just hit me a little bit differently,” she admitted openly.

Still, Greaves believes her mental toughness is the difference. “Nothing will ever get me down. I am too strong mentally for anybody or anything to affect my darts.” She acknowledges the struggles have been there, but now sees them as part of her development. “I have struggled for what feels a long time, but I am used to it and it is not a worry.”

Crucially, the enjoyment has to remain, especially now that darts has become her full-time profession. “I think the most important thing for me is that I am enjoying it. It’s my job now and I am keeping important people around me to keep me in the right mindframe."

Although Greaves has already made a strong mark on the PDC circuit — including a historic nine-darter on the ProTour — her focus now is on the next challenge: consistent performances at the highest level.

“It would be really nice to do well with my Tour Card. I am just trying to get a bit more consistent, I have just been a bit poor on tour. I am just trying to play at a consistent level and I have not done that yet.”
