BEAU GREAVES wants an end to the “stupid” one world championship rule.
The Doncaster thrower made it a hat-trick of WDF women’s world titles on Sunday night when she thumped Sophie McKinlay 4-1 in the final.
Beau Greaves wants the PDC to change a ‘stupid’ rule[/caption]Yet those involved at the Frimley Green event are not allowed to qualify for the PDC World Darts Championship, which starts on Sunday and is open for both sexes to enter.
Poster-girl Greaves – the best female player in the world – will not be involved at Ally Pally this Christmas having decided to defend her Lakeside crown.
Greaves, 20, plays in the PDC Women’s Series and the World Matchplay in Blackpool but now wants a separate ladies-only World Champs.
It did happen once back on the PDC circuit in 2010 when American Stacy Bromberg was victorious.
Beau ‘n’ Arrow said: “I love WDF darts. It’s the only tour that gives you a world championship for women.
“The PDC is great. But it doesn’t have a world championship. It has a World Matchplay. That isn’t good enough.
“The PDC has to have a world championship to justify having a Tour for the ladies. The Women’s Series is great and the money is good.
“At the same time, we want more for it. The ruling about not being able to play both is stupid.

“I can understand the men doing it but the women, I don’t understand that part of it – they don’t have a world championship for the women.
“The WDF has a ladies’ world championship and you have to pick what is best for you.”
Luke Littler could be taking on one of Greaves’ female counterparts in his opening clash at Ally Pally later this month if Fallon Sherrock makes it through her first round tie.
