It was a roller-coaster Saturday at the PDC Women’s Series Event 21 and Event 22 in Wigan — one of high drama, razor-tight finishes, and a bittersweet outcome for Fallon Sherrock. In both finals she faced Beau Greaves and in both finals she came agonisingly close… only to be denied. Greaves beat Sherrock 5-4 in Event 21 and 5-4 again in Event 22, extending her breathtaking winning streak on the Women’s Series to 72 matches.
If you’re a fan of Sherrock, this isn’t just a defeat — it’s a double-blow. Two finals. Two heartbreaking losses. Two opportunities to stop the momentum of a rival who is now rewriting the record books. For Sherrock, this was a moment of high stakes: every leg counted, every throw mattered.
In Event 21, Sherrock battled through a tough bracket to reach the final. The tension was immense. Greaves meanwhile dropped just two legs en route and was ruthlessly efficient. In the final Sherrock fought back — she forced the decider, but in the sudden-death leg Greaves landed the killer blow. Then 24 hours later, in the Event 22 final, the same story unfolded. Sherrock pushed, she averaged near her best, she made legs of 13 and 11 darts mid-game — but Greaves edged it yet again.
What makes this particularly poignant for Sherrock is the context. Sherrock has done so much for women’s darts, breaking barriers and inspiring many. And yet here, she finds herself up against a peer who may well be the next big-thing: relentless, confident, imperious. Greaves is racking up wins while Sherrock plays catch-up. That dynamic adds emotional weight. To be edged out twice in a row — in two finals — hurts. It stings.
For Greaves, the story is almost giddy: 72 consecutive wins, 11 titles in a row, running unbeaten through an entire Women’s Series weekend. She is on a mission and at 21 years old, she is showing the kind of consistency that legends are built on.
But for Sherrock? It’s a moment of reflection. Not defeat of character, but of circumstance. Can she respond? Can she adapt and find a way to halt this unstoppable train? If she wants to remain a front-runner in this era of women’s darts, this weekend may define a turning point — for better or worse.
So while Greaves celebrates, Sherrock watches and learns. The streak rolls on. The defeats stack up. And the question hangs heavy: can Fallon Sherrock reclaim her mantle, or will this weekend mark the start of a new chapter in which she becomes support cast to Greaves’ rise? Only time – and many more legs – will tell.
