Luke Humphries lost in a third final of the season on the European Tour with the Belgian Darts Open being won by Michael van Gerwen 8-6.

But Humphries wasn't massively disappointed post match and said that he was punished by an A+ Van Gerwen and believes that next title will come.

"I don't feel disappointed, I think I played well," said Humphries. "I played an A+ Michael van Gerwen and you can't make a mistake. I did in a couple of legs, I missed a dart here and there and I got punished.

"I thought I played a good game but a couple of mistakes cost me and if I'd took those finishes out I probably would have won.

"It was a closely-contested game, it was nip and tuck and he pulled out the good legs at the end. I was proud of myself the way I played, but the better player won in the end.

"Obviously, it's always disappointing to lose but I'll get that title this year soon, I'm sure. I've run into three brilliant performances in the final, but it's coming."
