The first edition of the BDO World Trophy was held at the Blackpool Tower from 6 till 9 February 2014. The Russian Anastasia Dobromyslova wins the first edition by taking revenge for the lost World Championship final against Lisa Ashton.
Dobromyslova wins a thrilling final 9-7 after she had also beaten Irina Armstrong, Sharon Prince and Lorraine Winstanley. The Russian produces her best darts under pressure which she shows in the earlier rounds by winning twice in a decisive leg.
Lisa Ashton loses only two legs on her way to the finals, but cannot add this title to her World Championship title.
