Luke Littler continued his electrifying Premier League Darts campaign with yet another dominant display on Night Eight in Newcastle, dismantling Luke Humphries 6-1 in the final. With his fourth weekly title of the season, the teenage sensation extends his lead at the top of the table, pulling further ahead of world number one Humphries in the race for the playoffs.
🔥 Unstoppable Form
Littler, who has now made five consecutive weekly finals, wasted no time asserting his dominance. In the quarter-finals, he delivered a brutal whitewash, demolishing Stephen Bunting 6-0. His semi-final clash against Rob Cross proved a tougher test, but ‘The Nuke’ still prevailed 6-3 to book yet another showdown with Humphries.
On the other side of the draw, Humphries put on a solid performance, defeating hometown hero Chris Dobey 6-3 in the quarter-finals. His semi-final against Nathan Aspinall was a nail-biter, requiring his very best darts to edge out the recent European Tour champion 6-5 in a thrilling last-leg decider.
🎯 Littler vs. Humphries: A Rivalry Brewing
The final, however, was a one-sided affair, with Littler steamrolling his biggest rival in a ruthless 6-1 victory. The Premier League debutant showed no signs of pressure, averaging over 100 and landing crucial checkouts to put Humphries to the sword.
With the playoffs fast approaching, Littler has established himself as the man to beat in this year’s Premier League Darts. Can anyone stop ‘The Nuke’ from claiming the ultimate prize?
