Who was Toon Greebe Darter?

Toon Greebe (25 September 1988 – 16 October 2023) was a professional Dutch darts player who played in the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) & World Darts Federation (WDF) tournaments.

Gribe initially joined the PDC ranks as a highly-rated teenager after scoring two nine-darts on the domestic circuit and reaching the quarter-finals of the Dutch Open in 2007.

He made a strong start to his PDC career, qualifying for the 2008 and 2010 World Darts Championships, but lost to Peter Manley and three-time world champion at their respective Alexandra Palace events John Pat.

Gribb has also been a two-time British Open qualifier, coming off the most successful year of his career in which he reached the quarter-finals of the Players Championship twice in 2009 against Phil Taylor. First appearance at the European Championships.

He also reached the last 16 of a ProTour event in January 2012, beating good friend Michael van Gerwen, but opted to retire from the professional circuit in 2014.

Gribe has suffered well-documented health issues in recent years, which resulted in the tragic amputation of his right foot and left leg.

In 2017, the Dutchman was taken to hospital with a severe infection that resulted in the amputation of his right foot, but he made a spectacular return to the winner’s circle at the 2019 WDF Polish Open.
