In and amongst all the Players Championship Finals action, Luke Humphries produced a whitewash win to defeat Adam Gawlas in the PDC World Youth Championship final.
Humphries who has dominated the Development Tour for some time said that a dream of his has come true.
Also he said from his perspective, it was a long time coming and that also he is looking forward to seeing where his opponent goes from here.
"It's been a dream of mine so I'm over the moon," said Humphries. "In the last three years, in my opinion, I've been the best youth player and this has been a long time coming.
"There was a lot of pressure on me and I had to be ruthless. To win 6-0 is amazing and it was a great win for me. I played well but maybe the scoreline is a little bit harsh on Adam.
"He's a great talent and it's amazing to think that he's only been playing the game for nine months, and I'd love to see where he is in five years."

- There are 30 Players Championship rounds to play first throughout the year and you have to be in the top 64 to get to the finals. This is probably the hardest Major to win as its the top 128 players at each event or the top ranked Challenge Tour players if any tour card holders drop out.Mysstree20-11-2024
