Luke Littler could hardly contain his delight at winning his first major darts title, while his rival Luke Humphries offered a strange excuse for his defeat.
The 17-year-old Littler overcame Humphries 11-7 to win the Premier League Darts title and claim £275,000 in the process - hitting a remarkable nine-darter in the final.
Afterwards he cupped his ear to the crowd and declared: 'One thing I just wanted to say, to all the doubters, "Hello!" I've just picked up this, you're not doubting me any more.
'It's so good to win but in front of my family and my girlfriend I don't know what to do.'
'I just thought "this is on"', he said of the final. 'I'm just enjoying it. I've been practicing really hard. Dead focused. All the hard work goes into this.
