Luke Littler stuns world champion Luke Humphries with epic turnaround in Dutch Darts Masters clash
LUKE LITTLER avenged his World Darts Championship final defeat by beating Luke Humphries to reach the Dutch Masters semi-final.
The teenage sensation celebrated his 17th birthday last week and put on a show to defeat Cool Hand.
Humphries was the winner the last time these two faced off in Ally Pally but he quickly found himself off the pace as Littler raced into a 2-0 lead.
A double double-tops in both legs handed The Nuke the advantage before Humphries pegged him back.
The world champion won four legs on the spin before Littler responded with back-to-back 180s to make it 4-3.
He then turned down the chance to finish with a Big Fish - cue more boos from the Dutch crowd after they did the same during his win over native Dirk van Duijvenbode.
