Luke Humphries is considered one of the top favourites for the overall victory at the Players Championship Finals after winning both the World Grand Prix and the Grand Slam of Darts in recent weeks.
Winning the first major title in October seems to have started a wave for Humphries. “I think when you get that first title over the line, everything else becomes a lot easier," Humphries tells pdc.tv.

“It gives you the confidence to go on and win more and more, and it’s no coincidence that in the last five years I’ve not won a major title, and now I’ve won two in the space of six weeks."
Humphries is now widely considered to be the best darter on the planet at this moment, but ''Cool Hand Luke'' realizes that this status can quickly reverse again. ''Maybe I am the best player in the world at the moment, but it fluctuates so much because we’re in era now full of fantastic dart players. Next weekend I could be second or third best, if Gerwyn Price picks up a title, or Michael van Gerwen picks up a title!" Humphries said.

- 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
