Beau Greaves became the youngest ever world darts champion - man or woman - at the age of 18 by thrashing Kirsty Hutchinson 4-0 at the Lakeside.

The teenage sensation won her 20th match in a row in all competitions for the loss of just one leg in a dominant performance, averaging just over 92 in the process and throwing five 180s.

Greaves also had Trina Gulliver's record Lakeside women's average of 95.97 in her sights when she managed 104 in the opening set but despite falling just a few points short, it was the highest ever recorded in the final, eclipsing Mikuru Suzuki's mark of 90.12 in 2019.

Beau N Arrow's achievement is made even more remarkable by the fact she's had to recover from the career-threatening dartitis on her journey to becoming world champion.

Hutchinson never got going, averaging in the low 70s and only had darts at a double in three of the 13 legs played.
