AI Summary

Beau Greaves etched her name in darting history by becoming the first woman to win a match on the PDC European Tour. This remarkable achievement came after she staged a comeback from a 3-1 deficit to defeat Daryl Gurney 6-4 in Prague on Friday night. This victory sets her up for a second-round clash against world No. 2 Luke Humphries at the Czech Darts Open on Saturday evening.

Greaves, only 22 years old, continues to break barriers in the sport. Her recent accomplishments include:

  • First woman to hit a nine-darter on the PDC Pro Tour against Mensur Suljovic in February.
  • First to win a PDC ranking title, edging Michael Smith 8-7 at Players Championship 11.
  • First woman to qualify for a European Tour event, reaching last month's Hungarian Darts Trophy.

Although she faced a first-round exit in Budapest, her impressive performance in Prague has extended her journey. Greaves clinched her victory over Gurney, a player she narrowly lost to in the first round of the 2026 World Darts Championship.

In other tournament news, Niko Springer dominated Martin Homola with a 6-0 win, setting up a second-round meeting with world No. 1 Luke Littler. Notable players such as Joe Cullen, Dirk van Duijvenbode, and Rob Cross fell short in their matches, eliminated by Stephen Burton, Mario Vandenbogaerde, and Keane Barry respectively.

Humphries, who received a bye to round two, aims to secure his fourth title in five years at this event, having previously won against Kim Huybrechts and Josh Rock in the finals. The competition continues to heat up as Michael van Gerwen and Gerwyn Price also prepare for their matches on Saturday night.
