Luke Humphries Falls to Laura Woods in Darts Match

Laura Woods stunned Luke Humphries and his partner, Duncan Ferguson, by hitting a treble 20 to win a darts match in the ITV studio. The match was a lighthearted affair, with Woods and her partner, Luke Littler, taking on Humphries and Ferguson as part of their build-up to the World Cup.

What happened?

Woods and Littler were the underdogs going into the match, but they managed to pull off an upset win. After an underwhelming start, Woods was told she needed 42 to win the match. She only needed one dart and fired in a treble 20, cheering as she was left stunned that she'd pulled off such a feat.

Why it matters for Luke Humphries

The loss to Woods is a minor setback for Humphries, who is currently in New York to take part in the US Darts Masters. He is one of the leading PDC players, along with Gian van Veen, Gerwyn Price, Jonny Clayton, Stephen Bunting, and Josh Rock. The Nuke, as he is known, was quizzed on whether he had been watching the World Cup and admits to catching some of England's goalless draw with Ghana due to their travel arrangements.

What comes next?
