Fallon Sherrock currently sits second in the PDC Women’s Series Order of Merit, a position that underlines her continued relevance at the top end of women’s darts despite a turbulent period marked by health challenges and shifting competitive access. The latest standings, based on prize money earned over the rolling ranking period, place Sherrock behind only Beau Greaves, with Lisa Ashton and Noa-Lynn van Leuven completing the top four.
According to the figures, Greaves leads the rankings with £37,600, more than double Sherrock’s total of £14,600. Ashton follows with £11,100, while Van Leuven sits fourth on £9,600. While the gap between first and second is significant, Sherrock’s position remains notable given the broader context of her recent career.
The PDC Women’s Series Order of Merit is not a traditional points-based ranking. Instead, it reflects earnings accrued across Women’s Series events, meaning consistency of participation and deep runs matter as much as outright victories. In that sense, Sherrock’s second-place ranking signals sustained competitiveness rather than dominance, particularly in a period when her schedule has been more selective.
Greaves’ position at the top reflects her near-total control of the women’s circuit in recent seasons. Her earnings total dwarfs the rest of the field, highlighting both her scoring ceiling and her ability to convert finals into titles. The disparity also illustrates a widening competitive stratification at the top of the women’s game, where one player is setting the benchmark while others chase consistency.
Sherrock’s ranking, however, tells a more nuanced story. While she has not matched Greaves’ volume of titles, she has accumulated enough prize money to remain firmly second, ahead of established names like Ashton and rising challengers such as Van Leuven. That standing is particularly significant given Sherrock’s recent health struggles, which disrupted her match rhythm and limited her exposure to high-volume competition.
From a performance perspective, Sherrock’s earnings profile suggests stability rather than decline. She has continued to reach latter stages often enough to maintain her ranking position, even if she has not dominated events. In a system where missing tournaments can quickly erode ranking status, holding second place indicates that her baseline level remains competitive within the women’s field.
Lisa Ashton’s third-place position reflects a similar pattern. Once the standard-bearer of the women’s game, Ashton has remained a consistent presence but has been overtaken by younger or more explosive profiles. Van Leuven’s fourth-place ranking, meanwhile, highlights the increasing depth of the circuit, with newer contenders capable of capitalising when opportunities arise.
The rankings also carry practical implications. Order of Merit positions are used to determine qualification for major televised events, including the Women’s World Matchplay and Women’s World Championship. Sherrock’s place near the top all but guarantees her continued presence on the biggest stages, where her experience and composure have historically translated well.
Importantly, the Women’s Series rankings operate separately from PDC Tour Card status. Sherrock’s second-place standing does not automatically grant access to the men’s ProTour, but it does reinforce her position as one of the sport’s most bankable and recognisable competitors. In commercial and broadcast terms, ranking strength combined with profile continues to matter.
The contrast between Greaves’ commanding lead and the tightly packed chasing group also reflects the current state of women’s darts. While one player is clearly setting the pace, the battle for places behind her remains fluid. Sherrock’s ability to stay ahead of that pack, despite reduced volume and recent disruption, suggests resilience rather than stagnation.
As the season progresses, the key question will be whether Sherrock can close the earnings gap to Greaves or whether her focus remains on consolidation and sustainability. With more Women’s Series events still to come, movement within the top four is possible, but Sherrock’s current buffer gives her a degree of security.
For now, the numbers are clear. Fallon Sherrock is world No. 2 on the PDC Women’s Series Order of Merit, and despite narratives of transition around her career, the ranking confirms she remains one of the central figures in the women’s game.
