Danny Noppert has won the eighth Players Championship of the year. 'The Freeze' was too strong for Luke Humphries in the final 8-6.
"Both were struggling in the final but I am so happy to get over the line," Noppert reflected post-match. "Yesterday my performance was not so good but today I was there at the right moments. There were some crazy games today but I am really proud of myself for taking it over the line."
For Noppert, it was the fifth final at a Players Championship and also the fifth time he managed to win, his first this year. A former UK Open winner, the Dutchman is hopeful this can be the catalyst for another major success.
“I am speechless, but I am always fighting in finals," Noppert concludes. “Last week I played Luke and he beat me really hard. Today I got revenge and it is a really good feeling. Two years ago I was a UK Open winner and this year I am really going for it, I hope I can take another big title.”

- No matter the competition she faces, when she's retired she can say "I was a multiple Women's World Champion" rather than "I repeatedly got knocked out in the 1st or 2nd round at the PDC World Champs." As a female why wouldn't she want to be a women's world champ? Darts players want to win surely? Her average on the women's tour was 84.86 which would've placed her in 152nd on the Pro Tour, she's wise enough to know that as it stands women still can't compete with the men apart from the odd win here and there mainly on the challenge tour. It's about time the PDC really invested in Women's darts and held a world champs for them.Baphomet08-12-2024
- She can play well but not sure at the moment to win a single game at Ally Pally, here she can take 25000 only playing left hand so easy cash for her bankroll. And Littler apart there isn't any 20 years old player to play PDC Worlds so she can widely take her time to step up.cycyP308-12-2024

- That 2013 final was the best ever. Taylor was underdog, unheard of however MvG was in top top form and rightly favourite. He went 2-0 up, Taylor equalised. MvG went 4-2 up, Taylor ground him down went into a Power Surge and won the next 5 sets. Brilliant darts.medinabello08-12-2024
