Luke Humphries continues to dominate and show why he's the player to beat in the sport of darts. He won 10-3 over Jonny Clayton to reach finals day at the European Championship.
Another slice of his collection he wants, he only doesn't have the UK Open, the Masters when it switches and this as his ranking majors and as he navigates finals day, he goes closer to achieving that.
"I played really decent to be honest. I said to Dan Dawson after the game was that good as I wasn't sure. I felt like it was decent, I just didn't know if it was really good. When you average over 100, that's all you can ask for. That makes you a tough player to beat and I think my scoring, my finishing was really good at the start. At the back end of the game, maybe I didn't step on the gas a lot and I should have just kept on going. But you can't be too perfect," said Humphries to Online Darts.
"You expect me to hit the 107, 108 averages all the time. Unfortunately they don't come all the time, you can't be perfect. I wish I could. I used to watch Phil (Taylor) and Michael (Van Gerwen) in their heyday and think that didn't look nothing special and then you'd see it and think that was pretty decent. I'd rather win with a 91 than lose with a 110."
"Some people relish the opportunity of playing the best in the world. You can create abit of a headline for yourself. Ritchie Edhouse is doing that for himself this weekend. He's been brilliant. Sometimes people relish, some don't flourish under the pressure."
He also is closing in on the two million mark on the rankings and said that a friend has been badgering him about it in recent weeks. "If I make that two million mark on the rankings, then it just shows I dominated two years to be honest. That would be exceptional. But I feel I'd have to win two majors or reach a World final to do that."
