Darts prodigy Beau Greaves has openly expressed her willingness to compete in the prestigious Premier League if given the opportunity. The 21-year-old gained significant recognition after defeating Luke Littler en route to victory in the World Youth Final last month, sparking discussions about her potential ascension 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 year’s champion, Luke Humphries, along with other top players like Stephen Bunting, Gerwyn Price, Rob Cross, and Michael van Gerwen, have also been part of this prestigious league.
Despite her reservations about being on the cusp of a Premier League position, Greaves expressed excitement at the prospect. She humbly acknowledged the praise she has received, stating, “It’s just nice – they don’t have to say that sort of stuff. It’s sweet for me. I watched all these players growing up.”
While uncertain about her chances, Greaves remains optimistic and grateful for the positive feedback. Her recent victory over Littler has bolstered her confidence, leading her to face Michael van Gerwen in the opening match of the Grand Slam of Darts in Wolverhampton. Greaves is determined to challenge stereotypes and prove skeptics wrong, emphasizing her belief in her ability to compete at the highest level.
As she prepares for upcoming competitions, Greaves is focused on enjoying the game and showcasing her skills without placing undue pressure on herself. She is determined to demonstrate her talent and make her mark in the world of professional darts.
