Beau Greaves, the young darts prodigy, has expressed her willingness to join the prestigious Premier League if the opportunity arises. The 21-year-old gained attention after defeating Luke Littler en route to claiming victory in the World Youth Final last month, sparking discussions about her potential ascent in the sport.
Renowned five-time world champion Raymond van Barneveld has suggested that a strong performance at the upcoming PDC World Championship could secure Greaves a spot among the elite eight players in the Premier League. The previous series champion, Luke Humphries, along with other top players like Stephen Bunting, Gerwyn Price, and Michael van Gerwen, have graced the Premier League stage in recent years.
Despite Greaves’ modesty about her chances, the rising star from Doncaster acknowledges the excitement of such a prospect. Grateful for the praise she has received, Greaves humbly accepted the compliments, mentioning her admiration for the players she grew up watching.
Reflecting on her recent triumph over Littler, Greaves acknowledged the confidence boost it provided, highlighting her evolving self-belief. She is now gearing up to face Michael van Gerwen in her opening group match at the Grand Slam of Darts, aiming to challenge stereotypes and prove her capabilities against top male players.
Greaves, who recently earned her Tour Card, emphasized her newfound belief in her skills and expressed her readiness to face any opponent with confidence and enjoyment. Her journey in the sport is marked by determination and a desire to showcase her talent on the big stage.
