Littler stunned everyone, but he couldn't quite get over the line, with Luke Humphries proving to be too good for th꧟e Warrington-born player.
However, he'll be back and will be determined to go that one step further, while Humphries will be out to defend his title.

In terms of the 96 players, the top-ranked 32 in the world automatically qualify and enter at the second r🔴oun♕d.
Another 32 are made up of the PDC Tour Order of Merit,💮 and the rest are quali⛄fiers.
Each 💝match 𓆏in the first round sees a qualifier take on a PDC Order of Merit player.
Prize money won across the season is what determines a player's ranking.
All matches are played as single in, double out – requiring 𓆏players to score 501 points to win a leg, finishing on either a double or the bullseye.
For all rounds except the first, the deciding set has to be won by two clear legs unless the set score goes to 5–5, in which case a sudden-death leg will be played. There would be no thro🔜w for the bull in any sudden-death legs.
The matches get longer as the tournament progresses, with the first and second rounds being best of five and working up to the final which will be best of 13.
