Suzuki wins her third PDC Women's Series title of the season

Mikuru Suzuki capitalized Saturday on the surprising elimination of Beau Greaves at PDC Women's Series 17. 'The Miracle' eventually won the tournament, capturing her third title of the season.

It was already her seventh final of the season for Suzuki. She won two of the previous six and had lost the last two finals to Greaves. The 19-year-old had won all of the last six Women's Series tournaments but surprisingly went down against Rhian O'Sullivan (4-3) at the last sixteen.

O'Sullivan then also beat Fallon Sherrock 5-4 but then had to acknowledge her superiority to Lisa Ashton (5-2). Suzuki had beaten Aileen de Graaf (4-2) and Maria O'Brien (5-1), among others, on her way to the final. The final match was then a 5-1 triumph for the Japanese.

Prize money breakdown PDC Women's Series 2023 with £240,000 on offer

Here's how to watch tournaments 17-20 of PDC Women's Series 2023 this weekend via live stream

How much prize money is up for grabs at the PDC Women's Series?

If at least 128 players participate, the PDC Women's Series participants will be awarded prizes from the last 64, with fifty pounds for reaching this round. If there are fewer than 128 players, the counter only starts running from the last 32. In that case they do collect one hundred pounds.

This amount eventually keeps increasing. A final place already earns 1,000 pounds anyway. The winner of the tournament gets £2000 in prize money.

The number one in the final ranking is eligible to compete at the Grand Slam of Darts and the PDC World Darts Championship, while the number two is also eligible to compete at Alexandra Palace. If a player has otherwise qualified for a tournament, the starting spot shifts to the next player on the PDC Women's Series Order of Merit.
