OFFICIAL | Beau Greaves accepts two-year Tour Card, confirming long-awaited PDC switch for women's world champion

Beau Greaves will make history in 2026 as she joins the PDC Pro Tour full-time, after officially accepting her two-year Tour Card following a phenomenal 2025 season across the Development and Challenge Tours.

The 21-year-old from Doncaster becomes just the second woman ever to earn a place on the professional circuit through the Tour Card system, following in the footsteps of four-time Women’s World Champion Lisa Ashton, who first broke that barrier in 2020.

Greaves’ management team, Opus, confirmed the news and praised both her achievements and professionalism throughout an “incredible year.” In their statement, they described her rise as proof that “hard work pays off,” adding that they “can’t wait to see what the next two years as a Tour Card holder bring.” Opus also expressed pride in continuing to work alongside Greaves, saying they are “pleased and proud to support her at this amazing time in her career” and are confident of bringing out “the very best she has to offer.”

Greaves placed second on the 2025 PDC Development Tour Order of Merit, cementing her place right near the summit of the sport’s youth system. Her campaign included multiple title wins and a string of deep runs that showcased both her scoring power and composure under pressure.

Even as the season reached its final weekends, she remained in relentless form — reaching another final in Wigan in early October — to seal the second spot behind of Cam Crabtree.

That No.2 finish guaranteed her a two-year Tour Card for 2026–27, allowing her to mix it with the world’s elite on the PDC Pro Tour for the very first time.

It marks a defining step in a journey that’s seen Greaves shatter barriers in both women’s and mixed competition. She already owns multiple WDF world titles and Women’s Series crowns, but 2025 has been the year she’s consistently proven she belongs in the wider PDC structure.

Her Challenge Tour success — including victories over established names like John Henderson and Stefan Bellmont — added further credibility, while her dazzling run to the PDC World Youth Championship final, highlighted by a 6–5 semi-final win over reigning World Champion Luke Littler, confirmed her elite-level potential.

That match, in which Greaves averaged around 105, was one of the standout performances of the entire season, male or female.

With her Tour Card now confirmed, Greaves will enter the 2026 PDC Pro Tour among a field stacked with major champions and rising stars — a transition that few have managed as seamlessly.

The focus now shifts to whether she can replicate her success from the Women's Series, and the Development and Challenge Tours on the sport’s biggest stage. What’s already clear is that her presence on the circuit represents more than individual achievement — it’s another step forward for women’s darts in the professional era.

For Greaves, it’s the culmination of a year defined by graft, growth, and a calm refusal to be daunted by reputation. And now, after conquering every level beneath it, she’s earned her shot at the very top.
