Luke Humphries and Rob Cross are the last two quarterfinalists at the German Darts Championship. Humphries in particular impressed in his match in the last sixteen of the Euro Tour tournament in Hildesheim.
Humphries managed to throw an average of 111 in his match against James Wade. 'Cool Hand Luke' broke Wade in the first leg with a 96 finish and then managed to take a 4-0 lead with an 11-darter and a 12-darter. A 13-darter brought the score to 5-0, before Humphries then threw a 77 finish for a whitewash against 'The Machine'.
In the quarter-finals Humphries will play against former world champion Cross, who beat current world champion Michael Smith. The latter managed to come back to 5-5 after falling behind 3-5, but Cross had the advantage of starting the last leg. With a 15-darter, 'Voltage' secured the victory.

- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
