"A lot of people wrote me off tonight" - Luke Humphries comes of age to prove doubters wrong and clinch first major title

Luke Humphries has clinched his first PDC major. 'Cool Hand Luke' was 5-2 too strong for Gerwyn Price in the final of the World Grand Prix.

"I've imagined this moment for my whole career - it's very emotional. Regardless of anything else I've done in my career, that was the greatest game I've ever played in my life," Humphries decided the match with a 138 finish. "That 138 is probably one of the best shots I've ever seen in my career, let alone [to win] the title. If I didn't hit that, we go off to the break and Gezzy feels that he's back in the game."

Humphries was joined in Leicester by his family, friends and sponsors. "I couldn't have picked a better ending for my first major title. I think a lot of people wrote me off tonight, they thought Gezzy would steamroll me, but I've got a bit of bottle about me, I have got the ability to play well."

"As much as I played well, that was a great final and I think Gezzy played his part there. He was a massive part of such a great game and credit goes to him."
