First up: total respect to Alan Soutar for showing up and winning matches the day after running the London Marathon. Proper boss behaviour. Now some Beau stats: She has now beaten five axtive PDC world champions competitively, just needing Humphries and MVG for the full set. Ranked above 50 Tour Card Holders, 18 of whom had a year's head start. Her 2026 ProTour record is 24-10, beating Lisa Ashton's 23 wins. On last year's tables she is two match wins away from qualifying for both the PC Finals and the Worlds. Top of the ProTour qualifying list for the Worlds and the Grand Prix is in reach. All in all, pretty incredible!28-04-2026 09:19

The PDC has just made it very clear that it believes that men have inherent advantages that make it unfair for anyone born as a man to compete with females. Doesn't that mean that Wayne's good intentions give false hope to all those poor weak inadequate girls, and who's going to tell Beau that she is biologically incapable of competing as an equal?26-04-2026 02:23

Move three to Britain and Ireland, give chances for our new Tour Card Holders and amateurs to qualify. The likes of Scott Waites and Jack Drayton would be far stronger than the locals we're normally lumbered with.20-04-2026 15:56

More Challenge Tour guys have made the final round than top 16 seeds - Tweddell, Waites and Hall Vs Ratajski and Nijman. Further evidence that we need to stop protecting the guys coasting in the 20s and 30s in the rankings. PS Respect to Beau on her first day, some great wins and averages and the hardest £1k she'll ever earn as a pro!28-01-2026 17:42

The PDC governs a global sport not a British one. Both Finland and Holland support trans-inclusivity making the World Championship qualification of Noa-Lynn over Kirsi Viinikainen moot. If it becomes impossible to run the Women's Series in its current form here, it could always be moved entirely to the EU as if the PDC wanted to follow the path of other UK sports it would have already done so.21-10-2025 11:47

Inviting the last 8 of majors to the World Series events would mix it up and with local qualifying tournaments could turn both the Series and Finals into ranking events. This year you could have had: Bahrain and Dutch (Worlds): Littler, MVG, Dobey, Bunting, Rydz, Price, Aspinall, Wright Nordic (Masters): Humphries, Clayton, Noppert, Van den Bergh, Heta, Littler, Aspinall, Bunting US and Poland (UK Open): Littler, Wade, Clayton, Rock, van Veen, Humphries, Michael Smith, Aspinall Aus and NZ (Matchplay): Littler, Wade, Clayton, Rock, Gilding, Price, van Veen, Bunting Surely that's better than the same 8 players and invited subs doing effective exhibitions half the year?23-08-2025 01:22

There are two players Michael Smith can leapfrog with a semi-final today: as well as Ryan Joyce, he could equal RVB and with the £5k would qualify on the count back rule of money earned in the last four Pro Tour tournaments. Either Ryan or Raymond would have to lose in the first round for a semi to be enough. O'Connor must win today to have a chance, and everyone in-between requires at least a finalist's cheque and some help from above.09-07-2025 12:00

This setup gives a free ride to guys at the bottom end of the ProTour qualification, where you get first round European Tour entry and Players Championship seeding. I reckon that if you beat every host nation qualifier and half the rest you could enter every major except the Grand Slam and earn £100k without ever beating a top-32 player.05-06-2025 13:39

Beau also skipped Players Championships 7 & 8 next week, and PC 3 & 4 four weeks ago. If she next chooses to miss the Women's Series and PC 13 & 14 in mid-April then we can make a fair guess as to her reason.13-03-2025 22:40
