The darts world is gearing towards its annual Ally Pally bonanza, but first all eyes are on Butlins at Minehead as this year’s Players Championship comes to a conclusion with finals weekend.
Saturday saw us pluck out two winners as Daryl Gurney upset Michael Smith, 6-4, and Luke Littler cruised past Ritchie Edhouse, 6-2.
Sunday brings the conclusion of the Players Championship with the quarter-finals, semi-finals and final taking place.
Outright tips
Luke Humphries to win
While all the praise has been on Littler after last week’s Grand Slam heroics, Humphries is the beneficiary of a kinder draw.
Cool Hand has Gabriel Clemens in the first round, while Littler takes on 2018 world champion Cross.
Voltage is capable of beating The Nuke, which plays part in us swaying with Humphries but Cool Hand also won this tournament a year ago and has had a good year himself, winning the World Matchplay.
Therefore, with the better odds and kinder draw, we think Humphries is the best bet in the outrights.
