Luke Humphries Warns Fans After Luke Littler's Premier League Win
Luke Humphries warns fans that Luke Littler could walk away from darts if booing continues.
He made this statement after Littler won the Premier League title on Thursday night.
Littler broke down in tears after beating Humphries, revealing struggles with the crowd.
He had considered quitting darts due to the hostile crowd, telling girlfriend Faith Millar "I don't want to do it anymore".
Humphries knows the feeling, having faced crowd hostility himself after beating Littler in the 2025 World Championships.
He averaged 111.67 and threw 12 maximums to claim the trophy and £350,000 in prize money, avenging his 2025 final defeat by Humphries.
Littler joins darts legends Phil Taylor, Michael van Gerwen, and Gary Anderson in winning the Premier League more than once.
He won the Premier League title on Thursday night, with Humphries urging fans to stop booing him.
Littler was joined by his family, girlfriend Faith, and friend Angry Ginge for the final at The O2 in London.
He described the Premier League season as a "rollercoaster" and credited his family, friends, and girlfriend for sticking by him.
Humphries told SportsBoom that darts needs Littler, but Littler doesn't need darts, and that he's a "good kid" who's trying to show everyone that.
Littler wrote on Instagram: "This Premier League has been one of the toughest tests for me and wouldn’t have this without everyone by my side."
The 19-year-old Littler was booed by crowds during the 17-week competition after clashing with Gian van Veen in Manchester.
Humphries reflected on Littler's emotional win, saying "What he said there would have been emotion".
Littler let out a lot of emotion and became teary when speaking shortly after his win.
He hit double 20 to win the deciding leg against Humphries, taking home the Premier League title.
