Beau Greaves has etched her name in darts history by becoming the first woman to hit a nine-darter on the PDC ProTour. The 21-year-old English star achieved the perfect leg during her Players Championship 6 match against Mensur Suljovic in Leicester, a feat that had never been accomplished by a female player in a PDC professional event.

The nine-darter, considered the holy grail of darts, requires a player to checkout from 501 in just nine darts - typically achieved with seven treble 20s, a treble 19, and a double 12. Greaves' achievement comes after she had already made waves in the sport by becoming the first woman to win a PDC title at a Players Championship event in 2023. Her victory over Suljovic, a former world number three, adds another milestone to her rapidly growing legacy.

This historic moment represents a significant breakthrough for women in professional darts, where female players have historically been underrepresented at the highest levels. Greaves' success on the ProTour circuit demonstrates the narrowing gap between male and female players in the sport. Her nine-darter will likely inspire more young women to pursue professional darts careers, potentially reshaping the competitive landscape of the sport in the years to come.
