Earlier this month, Humphries was crowned the winner of the World Darts Championship for the first time in his career, capping off a stunning few months by defeating Luke Littler 7-4 in the final at the Alexandra Palace.
Humphries will parade around the pitch with the trophy at half-time. The 28-year-old Englishman has just returned from Bahrain, where he lost 6-4 to Gerwyn Price in the quarter-finals of the Bahrain Darts Masters.

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

- I completely agree with Vincent's comments on "whistlegate". It's great to have someone with Vincent's exprience address this issue, so hopefully clearer and stricter guidlelines can be given to referees, security and members of the crowd. No whistling during throws, and something like: whistlers evicted and fined a hefty sum.
