The PDC Women's Series 2026 continues to be a one-woman show at the top, with Beau Greaves holding a commanding lead in the Order of Merit after 20 events. Greaves has amassed £34,700 in prize money, more than double the £17,050 of second-placed Lisa Ashton. Fallon Sherrock sits third with £11,650, followed by Gemma Hayter (£9,100) and Deta Hedman (£7,300) rounding out the top five.
The series comprises 24 tournaments across the UK and Germany, with events held in Milton Keynes, Leicester, Hildesheim, and Wigan. The most recent action in Leicester saw Greaves claim victory in Event 20, defeating Aileen de Graaf 5-0 in the final with a 91.65 average. She also won Event 19, beating Lisa Ashton 5-3 in the final, while Fallon Sherrock took Event 18 with a 5-0 win over Ashton. Lisa Ashton secured Event 17 with a 5-0 victory over Lauryn Salter.
Greaves' dominance has been remarkable, with wins in 14 of the 20 events so far, including the first four in Hildesheim and a run of victories in Wigan and Leicester. Other winners include Lisa Ashton (Events 5 and 15), Deta Hedman (Event 11), and Vicky Pruim (Event 12). The calendar continues with events in Wigan on 10-11 October, where the final four tournaments of the season will be held.
Prize money has increased across the board in 2026, with winners earning £2,500, runners-up £1,000, and semi-finalists £750. The total prize fund per event is £15,000, with payouts down to £75 for Last 64 losers. The format sees best of seven legs up to the quarter-finals, then best of nine legs for the quarters, semis, and final, with an open draw and no seeded players.
Looking ahead, predictions from our editors suggest Greaves will continue to dominate, though her increased focus on the PDC ProTour may see her skip some events. Fallon Sherrock is tipped as the main challenger, with Lisa Ashton, Gemma Hayter, and Noa-Lynn van Leuven also expected to contend. As Samuel Gill notes, "I think Beau Greaves will play the Women's Series just like the secondary tours last year in that she played enough to get herself in a good position and picked and choosed otherwise."
