This weekend sees conclusion of the 2023 PDC Women's Series: Who grabs the final women's spot for the World Darts Championship?
PDCThursday, 12 October 2023 at 12:45
The Robin Park Tennis Centre in Wigan is this weekend the battleground of the final four tournaments of the PDC Women's Series 2023. After this weekend, we will know which two ladies will be in action at the World Darts Championships.

This was originally going to be three women. After all, Beau Greaves won the Women's World Matchplay and two more ladies would be added via the Women's Series Order of Merit. However, Greaves has chosen not to participate in the World Darts Championship, but rather in the women's tournament at Lakeside. The vacant spot will not go to another lady, but will be made available during the qualifying tournament for Tour Card holders at the end of November. However, Greaves will compete in the Grand Slam of Darts as the winner of the Women's World Matchplay.
Thus, two women are going to be in action at Alexandra Palace. There is a very good chance that Mikuru Suzuki will be among these two women. The Japanese player has a lead of 2200 pounds over Fallon Sherrock and 4350 pounds over Lisa Ashton.
The winner of each Women's Series tournament will receive 2,000 pounds in prize money, and Suzuki will undoubtedly scoop some prize money herself. The excitement is mainly in the battle for the second ticket to the World Darts Championship. That one goes between Sherrock and Ashton. Sherrock currently has the best papers, as she enters the final weekend with a 2150-pound lead over Ashton.
A spot for the Grand Slam of Darts can also still be earned via the Women's Series Order of Merit. Suzuki is in pole position for this. Sherrock is her biggest challenger. The "Queen of the Palace" will have to make up at least 2,200 pounds on the two-time women's world champion.

- I loved Jan and loved his walk on music "Explode" by Jordan & Baker. I think if he stuck around the BDO he definitely would have been World Champion, should have won in 2014, he never really showed any of his talent in the PDC. I remembered he worked in a bank or in finance and maybe that was his priority, he was also a fan and interested in magic. Definitely should have achieved much more in darts than he did. Wherever you are nowadays Jan, hope all is well and I was always a fan.richieburnettrocks11-09-2026
- Not much of a tournament really,is it? Now they've all pulled out,it's open for everyone. I'm sure if you bought tickets,you'd be disappointed. Doesn't that seem to bother the withdrawals? Not at all!!rick6710-09-2026
- Need to see her take part in the womens tour. She'll break the inernet.medinabello08-09-2026
- If he can be bothered? He won't play darts in Germany yet he'll go over and get an award!??rick6702-09-2026
- Why is this the main story? He chose not to compete in loads of tournaments,yes he's number 1 in the world,but he does have to turn up at tournaments! Play the next world championship in Dortmund and see if he turns up!!rick6727-08-2026
- This is exactly what I mean,littler survives the 1st round,I think you'll find a lot of other players did. Can you just report on the real sport,and not just 1 person. I like Luke,but this is getting boring now,as Kevin painter once said to Taylor!! The sport is about every player,not 1 who everyone seems to have put the sport on the map.,which he hasn't,he's just got in when the money is massive. Great as he is,it seems like what's the point in anyone trying,he's going to win everything,unless it's in Germany or Australia!!!rick6726-08-2026
- I mean look, Littler's picture is first,wattimena is second and he won! Level it up. I know littler is fantastic,but the sport was here before him,and will be when he's retired. Any player in the top 64/128 can beat each other,it's not big news. Poor Jermaine,wins it,and not even the headline!!rick6726-08-2026
- I appreciate that littler is a fantastic player,but the top 3 articles are about him. Before he'd thrown a dart in the tournament. Level it out a bit, Taylor and van gerwen soon got disliked as the media could only see them,and nobody else seemed to matterrick6725-08-2026
- The two-point Lucky Loser qualifiers are Ross Smith, Robb, Whitlock, Sakai, Ilagan and Toylo. Jermaine is not on the entries list on Dartconnect for the TCH qualifier so the four from the main OoM are probably Searle, Nijman, Dobey, Wattimena.Scoobedybop24-08-2026
