World Darts Championship LIVE! Michael van Gerwen vs Chris Dobey before Luke Littler semi-final
Share:
World Darts Championship - LIVE!. There are just four players still dreaming of the Sid Waddell Trophy as the World Darts Championship semi-finals take place tonight. Three-time champion Michael van Gerwen faces Chris Dobey in the opening match, before tournament favourite Luke Littler goes up against Stephen Bunting for a place in the final.
It had been expected that tonight would bring a repeat of last year’s final between Littler and Luke Humphries, but the defending champion was beaten by Peter Wright in the fourth round, before Bunting then eased past Wright to continue his bid for a first world title.
Littler, meanwhile, saw off close friend Nathan Aspinall in the semi-finals and the 17-year-old is very much the man to beat. Van Gerwen at 24 is the youngest man to win this tournament, but there is every chance that Littler smashes that record tomorrow night.
