Luke Humphries has made no secret of who is the man to beat this weekend at the
Belgian Darts Open. The reigning world champion averaged 110.65 in the second round, leaving James Wade completely outgunned 6-1.
It was his second-best average ever on the
European Tour; his previous one was also against Wade. "I have nothing against him," Humphries laughed. "Far from it, James is one of my best friends on the Pro Tour, we get along really well. He never tries to distract me and just lets me play my game."
โI love the European Tour. Itโs made me the player I am today,โ insisted Humphries. โI didnโt have the best start to the season, but now Iโm starting to feel like the world number one again, and I felt really good up there tonight"
Humphries will take on Ryan Searle Sunday afternoon in the last sixteen. โEveryone knows what Iโm capable of and what I can produce, and now I believe Iโm doing it on a more consistent basis.โ
