GREAVES BATTLES DOUBTS TO CLINCH TWO TITLES
08/06/2025 By Aaron Nijjar
BEAU GREAVES admits she “feels terrible” at the oche — despite storming to a Women’s Series double in Milton Keynes.
Doncaster thrower Greaves has now claimed a remarkable 36 Women’s Series titles.
The 21-year-old sensation has increased her stunning winning run on the Women’s Series to 20 matches.
Women’s world No. 1 Greaves beat Fallon Sherrock 5-2 in the Event 13 final at Arena MK after seeing off Gemma Hayter 5-2 in the semi-finals and Noa-Lynn van Leuven 5-3 in the last eight.
‘Beau ‘n’ Arrow’ secured back-to-back crowns by defeating Lorraine Winstanley 5-4 in the Event 14 final.
But Greaves confessed she’s finding it hard to enjoy her darts right now.
She said: “It feels hard work at the minute. I don’t know what it is.
“It just feels like I am throwing through cement to be honest.
“I’m robotic and nothing is fluent.
“I do think it will come. I have had moments of it today where I have played really well.
“But I have also played really poorly.
“It literally just is practicing and trying to be as confident as possible to work my way through it.
“I’m playing okay now but I feel terrible when I’m playing and it is not enjoyable.
“I need to sort that out.”
Three-times Lakeside champ Greaves believes her struggles are more mental than technical.
She added: “I’m chuffed to win two events today but it’s just the way I feel is probably different to the way I am playing.
“Since my dartitis frap it is literally just about feeling good and playing more.
“I’m probably just overthinking it and I need to tell myself chill out.”
