Luke Littler vowed to “break his own records” following Premier League final defeat against familiar foe Luke Humphries on Thursday night. The two superstars of the sport met in the showpiece event at London’s O2 Arena, with Humphries being named Premier League champion – and completing the Triple Crown in the process – with an 11-8 win.
Speaking. to Sky Sports after the contest, Littler stated: “Had a bit of a thing after the game, as you do, nobody likes losing. Yeah I’m fine, glad to say it’s over. It’s been a tough 17 weeks, came runner-up, I’ll be back next year. I’ve set many records, personally don’t think they’ll be broken. I’ll go next year and try to break my own records.”
It’s a message that will put the likes of Humphries, Michael van Gerwen and Gerwyn Price on red alert, given how dominant Littler has been during this year’s campaign.
