[@Gray-zi5bp]

[@geminisundone]

Brilliant player and humble in defeat. Him n Littler will go back n forth for years.

[@InsideTheDarts]

The new Taylor vs. MVG, maybe? Great Final

[@leebrown4049]

Darts is back on the map with these standards of humility and honesty.

[@tiffer67]

Luke Humphries is a wonderful darts player but an even more impressive human being. It takes huge class & dignity to speak so sincerely about an opponent in defeat & he does so every time I hear him.

[@InsideTheDarts]

Who doesn't love Luke Humphries. Even greatly respectful in defeat. Humble Humphries definitely

[@SuperYtc1]

Notice how he is graceful in defeat only after winning the World Championship. A man's character cannot be judged when he is succeeding, only when he is struggling.

[@xAviateBizzaRe]

Thats how u handle defeat! What a guy!

[@jonathanvince8173]

Nobody can deny Luke's talent he's top drawer and after that press conference nobody can deny what an absolutely lovely honest straight up man he is.

[@tonestones9445]

Every comment is so positive towards Luke Humphries. l feel like playing Devils advocate and slagging him off but l can't. He is absolutely a class act and a gentleman.

[@jvcjbl]

This is what a Gentleman is. He is without a doubt one of the best interviewers in the sport. This was the sway to make me a fan. Such a class act!

[@mboutdoors_uk]

Cracking interview from a cracking guy! What a thoroughly decent human being. Good luck to the pair of them going forward. A great time to be a darts fan 👌🏼

Wow what a great interview, 100% full credit to Luke humphries, loved how humble he was in defeat, and how he applauded the 9 darter.Don’t normally comment on KZbin, but this guy is pure classs 👍

[@rebeccagraham5552]

Luke is amazin👏👏👏

[@dilligaf7486]

Very humble. Class act humphries. Him and Littler will win bags between them

[@juju-6559]

What a fantastic interview. He's such an inspiration, not just for the world of darts but for the whole world populous. He speaks so candidly without malice, hate, bitterness, or jealousy but with genuine grace, compassion, warmth, friendship, kindness, and happiness, even in defeat. Luke Humphries is a true gentleman, world champion and one hell of an advocate for what human decency looks like, even in defeat. Fair play lad. You did the North proud ❤

[@johnfoord9444]

What a lovely guy! Well done!!

[@mikeprendergast8223]

I love this guy !! If ever there was a role model in sport Luke Humphries is the one .. an absolute gentleman and a shining light for all rising sportsmen and woman

[@robovac3557]

What a great guy. So well spoken and intelligent.

[@TheMaf40]

A champion and sportsman.

[@leebdj1949]

He says the 9 darter didn’t negatively impact his game after, and you can clearly see the only thing it did was keep a grin on his face on his next visit. He didn’t get the cool stare back until after that. Just enjoying the final, against a great player, both playing well, and a 9 darter to boot. That’s basically the rush any player should be wanting from the game. So good to watch!

[@garyhawkins3613]

True sportsmanship 🤝

[@Vertical-sandwiches]

The gentleman of darts.

Such a kind and thoughtful gentleman Luke Humphries is. I have a lot of respect for him. Congratulations to Luke The Nuke Littler for winning the Premier League!

[@greenblue6935]

He'll win it again, him and Littler will be back and forth through the years, what a great era of darts this is going to be!

[@andrewsmart8520]

Luke Humphries is a true professional, but people should recognise that Luke Littler has taken the sport to another level, like Phil Taylor did. Littler is the reason why so many people are rushing out to buy darts again, start the sport, get more tv coverage and will start to see prize money increase more and more. Littler benefits everyone involved in the game. Is their jealousy because he doesn’t do things the conventional way. There are no rules to say he has to or should do. He goes for what he fancies, and this is entertainment .

[@mattywilliams7932]

Class Act. What a player.

[@TeddyPap]

Top class Luke. Must be hard to keep your composure when they ask such stupid questions. They have no idea how the game works. My best friend and myself used to play for hours and hours each day. He was better than me when we started but he improved my game. I also improved his game because when I could beat him he wasn't happy 🤣

[@kymbailie4012]

A real champion

[@markhawkes6336]

Luke Humphries and nathan aspinall are the nicest guys in darts

[@stevecheetham7436]

Aspinall? You're kidding right?
