The Czech Darts Open, the newest stop on the Professional Darts Corporation's European Tour, has released its full schedule and the latest match results, featuring a strong lineup that includes rising star Luke Littler, seasoned campaigner Luke Humphries, and trailblazing Beau Greaves. The tournament, which is being closely followed by fans across Europe, showcases a blend of experienced veterans and promising newcomers, each eager to make their mark on the circuit. In a landmark moment for women’s darts, Beau Greaves earned a place in the second round after becoming the first female player ever to win a match at a PDC European Tour event. Greaves overcame a two‑set deficit to defeat Daryl Gurney 6‑4 in the opening round, rallying from 3‑1 down to secure the historic win.
Her next challenge will be a high‑stakes clash with two‑time defending champion Luke Humphries on Saturday evening. The matchup pits the young English talent, who has already demonstrated remarkable composure under pressure, against the seasoned Humphries, who is looking to retain his title and add another trophy to his growing collection. World number one Luke Littler is also back on the European Tour after a brief hiatus; his last appearance was at the Belgian Darts Open in March. Littler will start his campaign on the second day of the Czech Open, taking on Niko Springer in a first‑round encounter that comes after the tournament’s 16 seeded players have been granted byes into the round of 32.
Littler’s return is highly anticipated, as he is widely regarded as one of the sport’s brightest prospects and his participation adds an extra layer of excitement to the event.
