On March 6, 2026, Greaves suffered a 6-4 defeat to Darryl Pilgrim in the second round of the UK Open, a tournament that features a total of 158 players and runs from March 6 to March 8. The first matches began at 11:00 AM, and the tournament is known for its unique format that includes amateur players and talents from various tours.
Despite the loss, Greaves expressed her positive mindset leading into the tournament. “I’m feeling really good. I started my Tour Card in January, that was nice,” she stated. She emphasized her focus on winning each game and maintaining a positive attitude, saying, “What I am trying to do this year is not think about what other people think. Try and win every game I play. Obviously, it is not always going to happen but just try and be positive.”
Observers note that the fourth round of the UK Open will feature the top 32 ranked players in the world, with the draw taking place after the third round on the main stage. Greaves’ early exit raises questions about her performance in future tournaments, but her strong track record on the PDC Women’s Series remains a testament to her skill and determination.
