Tricia Wright (born 1 September 1958) is an English former professional darts player from Mitcham in Surrey. Her nickname was The Wright Stuff.
Career
[edit]Wright competed in the first PDC Women's World Championship final in 2010, losing 6-5 to Stacy Bromberg despite having four darts to win it. She played at the 2010 Grand Slam of Darts, losing all 3 of her group matches to Raymond van Barneveld, Darryl Fitton and Colin Lloyd.
Since 2001 she has won over 50 amateur titles.
Wright was due to be one of three ladies to play on the 2011 PDC ProTour, along with Bromberg and Anastasia Dobromyslova but after the PDC decided to drop the Women's World championship and thus its qualification to the Grand Slam of Darts she decided to go back to the BDO without playing a single PDC event.
