Premier League Darts final: Luke Littler beats Luke Humphries 11-10 in thriller to exact revenge
After Littler’s missed match dart, a decider was needed to separate the English rivals.
Against the throw, defending champion Humphries finished with a one-dart finish while Littler fired his final dart into double 20 to end an epic showdown and lift the title for the second time following his success in 2024.
Littler also explained how he questioned his future after his previous struggles: “After Brighton I think I came off the stage and after the incident in Manchester [argument with Gian van Veen]I was sitting at home saying to Faith: [his partner]’I don’t want to do this anymore, it’s just crowded every week’.
“I told him ‘I’m in a bad situation’.”
But from that low he rose to the top and was perhaps his best after the 36th meeting with Humphries, who would partner Littler for England at the World Cup in June.
Already a two-time world champion, the young player has become even stronger in 2026 by adding the Premier League to the World Masters and UK Open, which are the world championships this year.
Littler owns seven of the eight ranking titles held by the Professional Darts Corporation, as well as currently owning the Premier League.
