The WDF Welsh Open weekend is complete with a youth feel to the winners of the main Gold titles in Prestatyn.

Current WDF World Champion, Beau Greaves was first to the oche and after taking out Lisa Ashton and Kirsty Hutchinson, it was a battle with Fallon Sherrock that awaited.

Sherrock who already sealed the WDF Welsh Classic earlier in the day though lost out 5-4 in a high quality final which saw a 93 average for Greaves and 92 for Sherrock.

'Beau N Arrow' completed huge finishes of 125 and 158 and came from 3-0 and 4-3 down to seal it.

While she was joined in the winners' circle by Luke 'The Nuke' Littler who has confirmed his spot at the 2023 World Championship.

This after blitzing past Wes Newton 6-2 with a 93.71 average after priorly winning both Youth Boys titles on offer today in Prestatyn.

The hugely talented 15-year-old also averaged 109 and 102 in seeing off Antony Allen and James Richardson over the course of today to reach the final and in collecting his second career WDF title continues to go from strength to strength.
