Once again it's time for the greatest sporting event in the world. Already some big name seeds are out but the big story is Luke Littler. The 16yo who looks late 20s.

Reminds me of MvG at a similar age.

Littler. Jesus.
Luke Littler defeats Barney to reach the quarter finals.
He's the real deal.
He's the real deal.
Littler wins again, thrashing Dolan 5-1.
He'll face Rob Cross in a semi final, who came back from 4-0 to beat Chris Dobey 5-4.

Dobey is one hell of a choker. He got swept aside last year winning just 3 legs in 5 sets and the year before he was 3-1 up and lost 4-3.
MVG out!

Littler is unbelievable. Think he just falls short on experience. Cross will be tough.
I wouldn’t have picked this final 4 if you gave me 10,000 guesses. Agree with the above I think Cross takes it from here.

Cross won the title at his first crack, no reason Littler can't.
The big story is that if Littler makes the final he'll be in the top 32 and be in eligible for the development tour.

Littler had already won a 2 year tour card so he will be playing the main tour this year anyway.
Littler 1 set away from the final!
And he's through.Cool as a cucumber in the last to seal the win!

Wow he is impressive.
Luke Humphries thrashes Williams 6-0 to reach to final.
Should be a very good match.

Haven't seen the match, but Humphries at his best is as good as anyone in the world. Interesting he was favourite with a lot of the bookies. He gets faded a bit by the masses as he's he not really a lad - the crowd will be behind Littler I think so that could rattle him a little.
No champagne for Luke if he wins
No fairytale finish for Littler.
Humphries takes out the final 7-4.
Littler led 4-2 and had a double 2 to go 5-2 up, but missed and that was the clear turning point.
Humphries outplayed him from there.

Well deserved for Humphries. Not to bag the crowd because they make the atmosphere, but I usually find myself cheering for the guy not getting the rub of the crowd. But those last 5 legs were some of the best throwing you'll see. After his mental struggles, great to see a guy come back and reap the rewards.
