It took me so long to get settled, but luckily I did enough to win the game.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;It means loads to me, the crowd&#8217;s fantastic. It&#8217;s such a tight stage and you feel so much from the crowd. I&#8217;m really enjoying it and loving the experience.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">It is the latest in a list of achievements for Doncaster&#8217;s Greaves which include her <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/darts\/articles\/ckg9ggjxeylo\" class=\"ssrcss-1fqyhkk-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\">becoming the first woman to win a PDC ranking title<\/a> when she beat Michael Smith in April.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">She is also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/darts\/articles\/c99jg1p10pzo\" class=\"ssrcss-1fqyhkk-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\">the first woman to hit a nine-dart finish on the PDC ProTour,<\/a> having done so in a win against Mensur Suljovic in February.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/darts\/articles\/cy9wvxqqj40o\" class=\"ssrcss-1fqyhkk-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\">Greaves also won the Women&#8217;s World Matchplay<\/a> for the third time when she beat Fallon Sherrock in July. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">On facing Humphries, she added: &#8220;I&#8217;ve played Luke on the big stage before so I know what to expect, he&#8217;s world class so I&#8217;m going to have to play a lot better than I did tonight.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;What more do you want than on a Euro Tour to play one of the best players in the world? I&#8217;ll look forward to it and I&#8217;ll be ready.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/sport\/darts\/articles\/c4gr9nk9rnro?at_medium=RSS&#038;at_campaign=rss\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beau Greaves made darts history by becoming the first woman to win a match on the European Tour.
