Humphries rallies to beat Price in World Grand Prix final

Humphries earned £150,000 after recovering from a 3-0 deficit and winning his fourth straight World Grand Prix final.

  • On Sunday in Leicester, 31-year-old Luke Humphries captured the World Grand Prix Darts title by defeating Gerwyn Price 6-4 after overcoming an early 3-0 deficit.
  • Price raced into a 3-0 lead with a 10-dart first set averaging over 132, but Humphries won four straight sets after trailing 3-0, shifting momentum in the ninth set.
  • Clutch shooting defined the comeback, with Humphries hitting a 180 and 105 checkout; the winner pocketed £150,000 while the runner-up received an £80,000 cheque.
  • The victory lifted Humphries back to world number two after he said he 'needed this to give myself confidence' following a 'torrid 15-18 months' losing major finals.
  • Price now faces five consecutive major final losses heading into the European Championship, which kicks off in a few weeks after two European Tour events.
