Earlier this year, Humphries was allowed to come to the stadium of his favorite soccer club to be honored after winning the world title. ''Parading the [World Championship] trophy at Elland Road was one of the greatest moments of my life. I got an amazing reception from the fans, and it's something that will stay with me forever," said the World Number One.

"Hopefully it will be the same tomorrow, but it will test my personality - how can I take the emotion out of it and put in a good performance.

"For me, the driving factor will be my new walk-on song and the crowd reception. Once I get that I'll be fully focused on winning, because I want to experience that crowd reaction three times tomorrow night!"
