Greaves Excited for Littler Clash at Grand Slam

Beau Greaves will face Luke Littler this Saturday on the opening day of the Grand Slam of Darts tournament. The two players are in the same group. Only the group winner will advance to the knockout rounds. The third player in the same group is Dutchman Niels Zonneveld.

Greaves said Littler is the best player in the world. Greaves said they always believe Littler will play very well. Greaves also recalled beating the world champion at the World Youth Championship 12 months ago. Greaves said the aim is to keep the match going by playing their own game and taking advantage of any chances that come up.

Greaves has played in the last three Grand Slam of Darts tournaments and won two matches. However, Greaves has not yet got out of the group. The 22-year-old lost narrowly to Michael van Gerwen and Gary Anderson last year. Despite averaging over 100 in those matches, Greaves did not win.

Greaves admitted being inconsistent. Greaves added that improving in this area is necessary to reach the top level of the sport.
