Anastasia Dobromyslova

Anastasia Dobromyslova is a prominent professional darts player hailing from Russia, celebrated for her exceptional skill and achievements in the sport. A three-time Women’s World Professional Darts Champion of the British Darts Organisation (BDO), Dobromyslova first claimed the title in 2008, marking her as a formidable competitor. Her early success prompted her to make a bold move by joining the male-dominated Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) for their World Championship in 2009, showcasing her determination to compete at the highest levels.

After a brief stint in the PDC, Dobromyslova returned to the BDO in 2011, quickly re-establishing herself as a leading player. She won her second World Championship in 2012, followed by a third title in 2013, solidifying her status as one of the sport’s greats. Known for her fierce competitiveness and focus, Dobromyslova often enters the stage to “Bring Me to Life” by Evanescence, a song that resonates with her journey and passion for darts.

While she is sometimes referred to as “From Russia with Love,” Dobromyslova herself has noted that this is not an official nickname. Due to the challenges many English-speaking commentators face in pronouncing her surname, she is more commonly known simply as Anastasia.

In addition to her BDO titles, Dobromyslova has represented Russia on the international stage, winning gold medals in the European Championships in 2011, 2013, and 2015 in the women’s singles category. Her impressive medal record and her contributions to women’s darts continue to inspire aspiring players around the world.
