Luke Humphries

Humphries won five PDC Development Tour titles in 2017, finishing top of the Development Tour Order of Merit.[3] As a result of this, he qualified for the 2018 PDC World Darts Championship, and received a PDC Tour Card for the 2018 and 2019 season.

He also won the Development Tour Order of Merit in 2019, a year which culminated in a fantastic run at the 2019 PDC World Darts Championship for Humphries. He beat Adam Hunt, Stephen Bunting, Dimitri Van den Bergh, and defending champion Rob Cross, before eventually losing to Michael Smith in the quarter-finals.

Following Gary Anderson's withdrawal from the 2019 Premier League, Humphries was selected as one of nine 'contenders' to replace him. He played a one-off match against Gerwyn Price on night four in Exeter.

At the age of 24 Humphries won the 2019 PDC World Youth Championship, where he beat Adam Gawlas 6–0, becoming the oldest player to do so in its history.

After another run to the World Championship quarter-finals in December, Humphries was once again selected for the Premier League, this time under the tag of 'challenger'. He faced Gary Anderson in Exeter and became the first challenger to win their game.[4]

Luke Humphries made his first major televised final at the 2021 UK Open in March 2021. His run to the final saw him claim wins over Dave Chisnall in the quarter-final and then-reigning champion Michael van Gerwen in the semi-final. He was defeated 11–5 by James Wade in the final.

Humphries reached his first PDC European Tour final at the 2022 German Darts Grand Prix by beating Jeffrey de Zwaan,[5] Michael Smith, Wesley Plaisier and Michael van Gerwen.[6] He beat Martin Lukeman in the final, hitting double 4 to win 8–2.
