Beau Greaves Darts – "Beau 'n' Arrow" Target Darts at Diplomatgames

Beau Greaves is one of the most extraordinary female dart players of her generation and has already set several historical records in her early 20s. The Englishwoman from Doncaster is nicknamed "Beau 'n' Arrow" and became the youngest women's world champion in history in 2022. She then defended her WDF World Championship title in both 2023 and 2024, winning three consecutive world championships. Target names her, alongside Trina Gulliver, as only the second player to achieve this feat.

In 2026, perhaps the most important step in her career followed. Greaves now plays with her own PDC Tour Card on the regular ProTour and won Players Championship 11 on April 27, 2026. In the final, she defeated former world champion Michael Smith 8-7, becoming the first woman to win a PDC ranking tournament.

For equipment, Beau Greaves has been under contract with Target Darts since 2025. Her first signature series is the Target Beau Greaves Generation 1. The 90% tungsten steel darts feature a straight barrel, finely placed radial grip grooves, and the Swiss Point System. Target currently offers the G1 in 23 and 25 grams.

At Diplomatgames, you'll find Beau Greaves darts and matching Target accessories.

Who is Beau Greaves?

Beau Greaves was born on January 9, 2004, in Doncaster and grew up in a large family.

She started playing darts regularly at around ten years old. Her older brother Taylor introduced her to the sport. Greaves recounted that she played on the dartboard in his bedroom while he was busy on the Xbox. It became apparent very early on that she possessed an exceptionally natural and straight throwing motion.

At just eleven years old, she was already playing league darts with her father and brother in a pub.

At twelve, she represented England at the youth level.

From that point on, her development was extremely rapid.

A Darts Family from Doncaster

Darts was not an isolated hobby for Beau Greaves.

Her older brother Taylor Greaves also plays darts and has participated in the PDC Q-School, among other events. Her sister Bobbi regularly accompanies Beau to tournaments.

Greaves is the youngest of a total of six siblings.

Especially in her youth, this family environment played a significant role.

Her family accompanied her to tournaments and helped turn a talent from Doncaster into an international darts career.

Why is Beau Greaves called "Beau 'n' Arrow"?

The nickname is a clever pun:

Bow and Arrow → Beau 'n' Arrow.

According to Greaves, the name was coined by a friend of her father's from her local pub in Doncaster.

Today, "Beau 'n' Arrow" is an integral part of her player identity.

For your Diplomatgames page, the nickname is therefore very useful because users can search for both:

Beau Greaves Darts

and

Beau 'n' Arrow Darts

can search.

First Major Successes as a Junior

Greaves won major junior titles at a very young age.

In 2017, she won the girls' competition at the World Masters and defended the title in 2018.

She also added numerous English and international youth titles.

However, even as a teenager, she simultaneously began to beat adult female players.

In 2019, she won the Welsh Open and Welsh Classic, among other tournaments. She also became the youngest winner of the British Pentathlon, according to her career history.

The distinction between youth and women's darts disappeared very early for her.

At 15 Years Old at the World Championship

At the BDO World Darts Championship 2020, Greaves made her debut at just 15 years old.

And she didn't just win one match.

She played her way directly to the:

Semi-finals.

There, she lost to eventual world champion Mikuru Suzuki.

Even then, it was clear that Greaves was athletically much more advanced than her age suggested.

The Fight with Dartitis

However, her development was not exclusively upward.

During the pandemic, Beau Greaves struggled with dartitis. This condition can disrupt the otherwise automated throwing motion, causing the player to have difficulty releasing the dart normally.

Especially for a player whose throw previously seemed so natural, this was a major setback.

Greaves, however, fought her way back.

And the comeback was spectacular.

Beau Greaves Becomes World Champion at 18

At the WDF World Darts Championship 2022, Greaves played an outstanding tournament.

In the final, she met Kirsty Hutchinson.

The result:

4-0.

Thus, at just 18 years old, Beau Greaves became the youngest women's world champion in darts history. Target explicitly features this record in her player profile to this day.

It wasn't just this one title.

Three World Championships in a Row

In 2023, Greaves returned to Lakeside.

She won again.

In the final, she defeated Aileen de Graaf with 4-1.

In 2024, she achieved another title defense.

Thus, Beau Greaves won the WDF World Championship in:

2022, 2023, and 2024.

Target describes her as only the second player, after Trina Gulliver, to win three consecutive women's world championships.

This shows how dominant Greaves became at a young age.

Beau Greaves' Greatest Successes

Her most important career successes include:

• WDF World Champion 2022
• WDF World Champion 2023
• WDF World Champion 2024
• youngest women's world champion in history
• Women's World Matchplay Champion 2023
• Women's World Matchplay Champion 2024
• Women's World Matchplay Champion 2026
• first woman with a PDC ranking title
• Players Championship 11 Winner 2026
• numerous PDC Women's Series titles
• several PDC Challenge Tour titles
• several PDC Development Tour titles
• PDC World Youth Championship Finalist 2025
• PDC Tour Card since 2026.

The results on the Challenge Tour, Development Tour, and regular ProTour are particularly important.

They show that Greaves not only wins in women-only competitions.

Dominance on the PDC Women's Series

Hardly any player has dominated the PDC Women's Series to such an extent.

In 2023 alone, Beau Greaves won 14 Women's Series tournaments, according to Target.

In 2024, another eight titles followed.

In 2025, she won numerous events again, and her winning streak continued in 2026.

Her long winning streak was particularly exceptional.

In February 2026, Greaves achieved 100 consecutive wins on the Women's Series.

Later, the series was extended even further.

This is a dominance rarely seen even in professional darts.

Three-Time Women's World Matchplay Champion

Greaves now also boasts an exceptional record at the Women's World Matchplay.

She won the tournament in:

2023, 2024, and 2026.

In the 2026 final, she faced Fallon Sherrock.

Greaves won an extremely close final with:

6-5.

Thus, Beau Greaves now holds three Women's World Matchplay titles.

Beau Greaves on the Open PDC Tour

Perhaps the most important part of her current career, however, is her success against men on the open PDC tours.

Greaves not only won Women's Series tournaments.

She also won:

Challenge Tour Events
and
Development Tour Events.

Target explicitly highlights that she was the first woman to win multiple PDC Challenge Tour events.

In 2025, she became strong enough on the Development Tour to earn a regular PDC Tour Card.

Beau Greaves Gets a PDC Tour Card

In 2025, Greaves secured a spot in the PDC Development Tour Order of Merit that earned her a two-year PDC Tour Card.

This means she has been a permanent fixture on the regular professional PDC circuit since 2026.

She thus became, after Lisa Ashton, only the second woman to earn a PDC Tour Card through sporting performance or a corresponding merit system.

This meant:

From 2026, Beau Greaves could play the regular Players Championships alongside established male PDC professionals.

And it wasn't long before she made history there.

The Historic Players Championship Victory in 2026

On April 27, 2026, Beau Greaves won Players Championship 11.

On her way through the tournament, she defeated high-class opponents.

In the final, she met former world champion:

Michael Smith.

Greaves won:

8-7.

She thus became the first woman in history to win a PDC ranking tournament.

This is one of the most significant milestones in modern women's darts.

Because a Players Championship is not a separate women's tournament.

Greaves won against a full professional PDC field.

Nine-Darter on the PDC ProTour

And just a few weeks prior, she had set another historic record.

At Players Championship 6 in 2026, Beau Greaves threw a nine-darter.

According to the PDC, she thus became the:

first woman to hit a nine-darter on the PDC ProTour.

This combination is remarkable:

Tour Card.

Nine-darter.

PDC ranking title.

All within a few months of her first regular PDC season.

Final of the Junior World Championship 2025

Already at the end of 2025, Greaves had shown that she could compete with the best young male players in the world.

At the PDC World Youth Championship, she defeated, among others:

Luke Littler.

She thus became the first woman to reach the final of the PDC Junior World Championship.

There, she eventually lost 3-6 to Gian van Veen.

The semi-final victory against Littler alone generated enormous international attention.

Beau Greaves at the PDC World Championship

Greaves has also played in the classic PDC World Championship.

She made her PDC World Championship debut at the 2022/23 World Championship.

For the two subsequent editions, she deliberately chose the WDF World Championship.

At the end of 2025, she finally returned to the Alexandra Palace.

At the PDC World Championship 2025/26, she faced Daryl Gurney in round one and lost a close match 2-3 in sets.

Nevertheless, it is now clear:

Greaves is no longer just part of the Women's Circuit.

She holds a regular Tour Card and consistently competes against the entire PDC.

What is Beau Greaves' Playing Style?

Beau Greaves possesses an unusually fluid and natural throwing style.

Target describes her playing style as:

smooth and confident.

Her throw seems hardly forced.

The dart is brought back cleanly, then accelerated in a straight line and released with a very consistent follow-through. It was precisely this characteristic that Target aimed to support in the development of her Generation 1.

What is particularly remarkable is how calm she appears.

Greaves does not require a particularly aggressive throwing motion to produce high scores.

An Astonishing Natural Talent

Even as a child, her straight throwing motion was reportedly noticed.

Greaves herself apparently doesn't necessarily train for hours every day, even now.

At the end of 2025, she gained attention when she stated that she sometimes only trained for approximately 30 minutes a day.

This doesn't mean that little training is automatically recommendable.

For Greaves, it rather shows how natural and highly automated her technique has become.

Which Darts Does Beau Greaves Play?

Beau Greaves currently plays:

Target Beau Greaves Generation 1.

The darts were developed together with her.

Target uses a:

90% Tungsten Straight Barrel

with finely placed radial grooves and additional precise milling.

In addition:

Swiss Point.

This allows the steel tips to be easily changed using the appropriate tool.

How Many Grams Does Beau Greaves Play?

Beau Greaves is currently listed at:

23 grams

.

The Target Generation 1 is available in two weight classes:

23 g
and
25 g.

Those who want to play as close as possible to her current known match setup should therefore opt for the:

Beau Greaves G1 23g

take.

Who are Beau Greaves Darts Suitable For?

Beau Greaves darts can be particularly interesting if you:

• prefer a straight barrel,
• want a rather fine instead of extremely aggressive grip,
• play approximately 23 to 25 grams,
• prefer a relatively slender barrel shape,
• want to try different grip positions,
• want to use Target Swiss Point,
• or are a fan of Beau 'n' Arrow.

The 23g G1 in particular is a very classic professional dart that should be of interest not only to Greaves fans.

Beau Greaves and Target Darts

Beau Greaves switched to Target Darts in 2025.

The partnership was publicly announced in May 2025. From the outset, Target planned a signature series for the then three-time WDF World Champion.

The Beau Greaves Generation 1 was released that same year.

In 2026, the partnership deepened further. Greaves is now one of the most prominent players on the Target team.

The current clear product connection is therefore:

Beau Greaves → Target → Generation 1 → 23g.

Which manufacturer did Beau Greaves play for previously?

Before joining Target, Beau Greaves was strongly associated with Winmau and played their darts for years, or was part of the Winmau environment.

However, since May 2025, for current products it is clear:

Target Darts

is the relevant manufacturer.

For your Diplomatgames page, I would only prominently mention older Winmau models if you still have them in stock.

The buying intention is now clearly directed towards the new Target G1 series.

Beau Greaves private life – Family

Family plays a big role in Beau Greaves’ career.

She is the youngest of six siblings and continues to live, or lived for a long time, with her parents in Yorkshire. Her sister Bobbi often accompanies her to tournaments, while her brother Taylor also plays darts himself.

Greaves appears relatively grounded.

At the end of 2025, she stated that one of her personal goals was to eventually be able to afford her own home through darts.

From an extremely shy child to a darts star

Darts also changed her life personally.

Greaves said that she was extremely shy as a child.

Sometimes people even thought she was mute because she barely spoke at school.

According to her, darts helped her to become more self-confident and to deal better with the public and people.

This is remarkable given her current career.

She now regularly plays in front of thousands of spectators and is interviewed worldwide.

What did Beau Greaves do before?

Greaves became professionally successful at such a young age that she never had a long classic career.

Nevertheless, she actually had a rather down-to-earth first job:

Window cleaning.

Her father used to run a larger window cleaning business, and Beau helped him and other family members on their rounds. According to her, she sometimes still classically stood on ladders and cleaned windows on several floors.

She was apparently not paid particularly generously.

But Greaves later said she actually liked the work.

Hobbies and life outside of darts

Off-stage, Beau Greaves appears much more reserved than many other darts stars.

A large part of her life remains strongly connected to family and her home in Yorkshire. Gaming was also part of her family environment during her childhood – after all, her own darts story partly began with her throwing at her brother's board while he played Xbox.

There is little reliable documentation about extravagantly marketed hobbies or an elaborate celebrity life.

For a Diplomatgames page, I would therefore prefer to focus on this grounded side rather than artificially collecting tabloid information.

Beau Greaves and Fallon Sherrock

In women's darts, Beau Greaves and Fallon Sherrock are often compared.

Sherrock made history in 2019 when she became the first woman to win a match at the PDC World Championship.

Greaves is taking a slightly different path.

She dominates the Women's Circuit and now simultaneously holds a regular PDC Tour Card and an open PDC ranking title.

At the Women's World Matchplay 2026, both met directly in the final.

Greaves won 6:5.

Both therefore belong to different, but equally important, chapters of modern women's darts.

Beau Greaves vs. Luke Littler

The duel with Luke Littler has also become particularly interesting.

In the semi-finals of the PDC World Youth Championship 2025, Greaves defeated the then world champion, becoming the first woman to reach the final of this tournament.

Both belong to almost the same generation.

Littler revolutionized open PDC sports.

Greaves could develop a similarly significant importance for the integration of women into the regular PDC Circuit.

Beau Greaves 2026 – no longer just "best woman"

This is exactly what is important for classifying her career.

The interesting question is no longer:

Is Beau Greaves the best female darts player in the world?

Her successes in women's darts clearly support this anyway.

The more exciting question is:

How far can Beau Greaves go on the regular PDC Tour?

2026 already provides some answers.

She was the first woman to throw a nine-darter on the PDC ProTour.

She was the first woman to win a PDC ranking title.

She was the first woman to qualify for multiple European Tour events in one season.

And she holds a regular PDC Tour Card.

Greaves is now simply:

A PDC professional.

Beau Greaves – a career with historic potential

At 18, she became world champion.

At 19, she defended her title.

At 20, she became world champion for the third time in a row.

At 21, she earned a PDC Tour Card and reached the final of the Junior World Championship.

At 22, she was the first woman to throw a PDC ProTour nine-darter and the first woman to win a PDC ranking tournament.

In July 2026, she then already secured her third Women's World Matchplay title.

And Beau Greaves in August 2026 is only:

22 years old.

Her career could therefore last for many more years.
