Re: British Open & Classic (Sept 20th-22nd)
Greaves said in an interview with LiveDarts last year that she planned to go to Q School and wanted to play PDC. With Development Tour and Challenge Tour, lots of opportunity to play even without a tour card. Greaves wouldn't need much improvement from her winning form (not the shite she played at the England Masters/Classic) to be competitive at lower PDC levels. Greaves will be 16 in early January, so she'll be able to play PDC next year.
Bennett is a standout of the many good youth players. I think he's an example of the earlier development of players so isn't likely to be anything special in the future, but the BDO needs to recognise that earlier development and not exclude players from their top tournament qualifiers just because of their age. The Open golf qualifying only requires that a player be a scratch golfer or in the top 2,000 amateur golfers to enter. The BDO should have similar ability-based criteria. They're playing county, so they have their averages, and there are records of other tournament performances.

God rest Alf Garnett and Prince Phil.
I used to love cycling but unfortunately I know a man who doesn’t like cyclists.
