Luke Littler secured his second Premier League darts title with a dramatic 11-10 victory over Luke Humphries at The O2 in London. The world No. 1 averaged 111 in the final, reclaiming the trophy from Humphries who won in 2025 after Littler's initial victory in 2024. This completes a remarkable comeback for Littler who was bottom of the table after four weeks of the Premier League campaign.

The triumph earns Littler £350,000 in prize money while runner-up Humphries collects £170,000. Both players reached the final through last-leg epics, with Littler surviving a 9-4 comeback attempt from Gerwyn Price and Humphries defeating Jonny Clayton 10-9. All 59 possible legs were played during Finals Night, making it one of the most dramatic Premier League finals in history.

Littler admitted the campaign took its toll, particularly facing crowd opposition stemming from an incident with Gian van Veen in Manchester. The emotional champion now holds eight major titles including the World Championship, World Matchplay, and Grand Slam. His victory cements his status as the dominant force in professional darts with this Premier League triumph coming against his closest rival.
