Luke Humphries has qualified for the last sixteen of the European Darts Grand Prix. 'Cool Hand Luke' defeated Luke Littler 6-5 in the second round.
In a clash of the titans, with both men averaging above 100, it was ultimately Humphries who narrowly prevailed. It is actually the first time since the World Championship final that Humphries has managed to win over Littler, as Humphries had since lost to his younger compatriot six times in a row.

"That record wasn’t something that was playing on my mind," Humphries laughed. "Luke is a fantastic player and in elite level sport, these runs of results can happen, but of course I’m relieved that run is over."
Humphries takes on Stephen Bunting in the next round, against whom he lost last weekend at the International Darts Open. "I never should have lost that match, but I was so tired," Humphries said. "After this weekend I really need a few weeks of rest, but first on finals day I have to be bang on. After all, I want to win this tournament."

- And this should be the end of it. He was playing like a w****r and gestured as such. End of.Mysstree25-12-2024
- Cross will likely be No. 4 in the world after the world's. He's been in the quarter's or higher in 7 out of the 14 ranked TV majors in the last 2 years. Neither Williams or Cross played close to what they're capable of in this match.Matilda6224-12-2024

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024
