Teenage prodigy from Warrington managed to beat the world No.1, securing a spot in the third successive Premier League final. Throughout the match, he was cheered on by the Birmingham crowd.
However, a comical moment unfolded when the cameraman was deceived while capturing the fanfare. Despite defeating Humphries, the prodigy was unable to secure a third straight Premier League night win, losing to Michael van Gerwen in the final.
He continued his success in the Midlands, coming from behind to defeat Rob Cross in his first match of the evening. Having triumphed over Humphries, the prodigy was poised for a crucial showdown with Van Gerwen, who had beaten Nathan Aspinall and Michael Smith on the night.
Van Gerwen managed to secure a scrappy final victory, despite the teenager struggling to replicate his previous performance against Humphries. Although the prodigy attempted a comeback, Van Gerwen held on to win 6-3.
