Beau Greaves became the first woman to win a PDC ranking title by defeating Michael Smith 8-7 in the Players Championship 11 final in Milton Keynes.
The 22-year-old checked out with 142 in the deciding leg to seal victory against the former world champion, closing with a double 11.
Greaves enjoyed a strong run to her encounter with Smith, defeating Rob Cross 6-5 and Gary Anderson 7-1 on the way to the final.
It is the latest step in Greaves' ascendant career, after she recorded a 114-match winning run in the PDC Women's Series and became the first woman to hit a nine-dart finish on the PDC ProTour.
Elsewhere in the tournament, world number two Luke Humphries exited in the third round 6-5 to Max Hopp, while Premier League Darts players Stephen Bunting and Josh Rock fell in the first round.
The event did not feature world champion Luke Littler, who is yet to play in a Players Championship event this year, while Michael van Gerwen, Jonny Clayton, Gerwyn Price and Nathan Aspinall were also not in the field.
Beau Greaves - how far can darts' rising star go?
