Gerwyn Price and Luke Humphries will meet in Sunday's World Grand Prix final in Leicester. Price, the 2020 champion, defeated Nathan Aspinall 5-2 in Saturday's first semi-final. Luke Humphries then beat James Wade 5-3 to reach his fourth straight final.
The final will be a repeat of the 2022 showpiece, which Humphries won 5-2. A major drought will end either way at the Mattioli Arena. Humphries is seeking his first premier title since the 2025 Premier League, while Price's previous elite silverware came in 2022 at the World Series of Darts Finals in Amsterdam.
The winner will earn £150,000 and the runner-up £80,000. The final will be first to six sets. Humphries will look to improve on previous losses in 2024 and 2025.
Later, Humphries ended Wade's hopes of a third World Grand Prix crown. 'Cool Hand' won the sixth set on throw after the first five had been taken 3-1 by the player throwing second. Humphries fired in back-to-back 137s to break 'The Machine' in the eighth set.
