World Grand Prix Darts 2024 schedule: Dates and times for huge £600k tournament as Luke Littler CRASHES OUT
THE World Grand Prix is underway – with some of the biggest names in darts featuring in Leicester.
Last year, Luke Humphries claimed his first major TV title after coming from behind to beat Gerwyn Price 5-2 in the final.
Luke Humphries is looking to retain his World Grand Prix crown this monthRex
Since then, Cool Hand has claimed even more accolades, most notably becoming world champion in January.
This week, Humphries will be aiming to join Phil Taylor and Michael van Gerwen in becoming the third player to retain the prestigious crown.
Teenage sensation Luke Littler was hoping to stop the World No1 as he made his World Grand Prix debut this month.
The 17-year-old star has gone from strength to strength since losing to Humphries in the World Championship final in January.
But Littler could not make it after the first round after a tough draw against world No 4 Rob Cross, who beat him in a thriller.
