#365: Beau Greaves, Alan Soutar, Christian Perez, World Matchplay Review

The Weekly Dartscast

Co-hosts Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode after the World Matchplay. The boys start the show with a look back at this year's World Matchplay and discuss another major title for Luke Humphries, a run to the final for Michael van Gerwen, and who could end up with the most world titles between them. Alex and Burton also pick out their own highlights from the nine days in Blackpool, before reflecting on the Women's World Matchplay, which saw Beau Greaves retain her title, and finish up the show with a dip in the mailbag to answer your listener questions! Beau Greaves (19:41) chats to our producer Hanna just moments after retaining the Women's World Matchplay in Blackpool. The reigning women's world champion looks back on her second title-winning campaign at the Winter Gardens, and chats about qualifying for the Grand Slam again and reveals her plans for the prize money! Alan Soutar (40:47) sits down with Alex before the recent Operation BULLSEYE exhibition in Blackpool to reflect on winning his first PDC title earlier this year, playing darts with the Scotland squad before the start of Euro 2024, and looks ahead to the rest of the season. Christian Perez (47:47) also chats with Alex in Blackpool as he looks back on his career so far, from discovering the game growing up in the Philippines to becoming the first player from his country to earn a PDC tour card. Christian reflects on his first 18 months on the PDC tour, reaching a semi-final on the floor, and his hopes for the final months of 2024.
