Humphries ends major drought

Luke Humphries, 31, beat Gerwyn Price 6-4 in the World Grand Prix final in Leicester to win his first PDC major title since the Premier League in May 2025.

Price's early dominance

Price claimed the first set with a 132 three-dart average and raced to a 3-0 lead. Humphries later admitted he feared a 6-0 clean sweep given the brutality of Price's play.

Humphries turns it around

In set four, Humphries took out a brilliant 105 finish to win the set. He said it felt like the biggest shot of his career and momentum swung decisively in his favour.

Humphries claims five straight

After winning set four, Humphries claimed the following three sets to lead. Price rallied in set eight to force a best of three finale, but Humphries found another gear.

Decisive final set

Set nine went to a deciding leg. Humphries finished in ten darts, then won three unanswered legs to claim his ninth major PDC title and second World Grand Prix crown.

Humphries reflects on victory

Humphries told Sky Sports the win gave him confidence after a difficult 15 to 18 months losing major finals. He said these titles are sweeter than ones won with ease.

“It's been a torrid 15 or 18 months, losing so many major finals.”
