“I have no idea how I have done that,” exclaimed Luke Littler after his stunning comeback victory against Gerwyn Price in the final of Night Seven of the Premier League Darts.

Littler, the world No 1, showcased his resilience by rallying from a staggering 5-0 deficit to win six legs in a row, ultimately sealing the match 6-5. This remarkable performance not only secured him the night’s title but also earned him £10,000 and five crucial points in the league table.

Prior to the final, Littler faced Michael van Gerwen in the semi-finals, narrowly defeating him 6-5. Van Gerwen, who was initially set to compete against Gian van Veen, received a bye due to van Veen’s withdrawal caused by kidney stones.

In the quarter-finals, Gerwyn Price demonstrated his prowess by whitewashing Josh Rock 6-0, setting the stage for a highly anticipated clash with Littler. However, Price’s momentum was halted as Littler turned the tables in the final.

Price, reflecting on the match, stated, “This is darts, things happen.” His earlier performance against Rock showcased his skill, but it was not enough to withstand Littler’s comeback.

Luke Humphries, the defending champion, faced Price in the semi-finals but fell short, losing 6-1. This result highlights the competitive nature of the Premier League Darts, where every match can pivot dramatically.

After Night Seven, Littler remains three points behind Jonny Clayton in the league standings, with only nine nights left in the season. The stakes are high as players vie for the coveted title and the £350,000 prize for the Premier League champion.

With 16 nights scheduled for this season, the excitement continues to build as players prepare for the next round of matches. Fans eagerly await to see if Littler can maintain his momentum and challenge for the top spot.

As the tournament progresses, the drama of the Premier League Darts is far from over, with each player aiming for glory in this high-stakes environment.

In a dramatic twist at the Premier League Darts in Dublin, Gian van Veen has withdrawn from Night Seven due to kidney stones, allowing Michael van Gerwen to advance directly to the semi-finals. The event, held at the 3Arena, is set to feature crucial quarter-finals starting at 19:00 local time.

Van Veen was scheduled to face Van Gerwen in a highly anticipated match, but his hospitalization has altered the landscape of the competition. “Gian van Veen withdrew from Night Seven in Dublin, where he was scheduled to face Michael van Gerwen in the quarter-finals, after being hospitalised with kidney stones,” a spokesperson confirmed.

Night Seven will also see Stephen Bunting take on Luke Littler, while Josh Rock faces Gerwyn Price, and Jonny Clayton competes against Luke Humphries. Each match is played as best-of-11 legs, with the winner earning £10,000 and five points towards the overall standings.

Jonny Clayton, who won Night Six in Nottingham against Luke Humphries, is among the favorites as the tournament progresses. The competition spans 17 weeks, with a total of 16 nights before the Play-Offs, culminating in the Finals Night scheduled for May 28, 2026.

After six weeks of play, Luke Humphries leads with five match wins, while Josh Rock has yet to secure a victory. The stakes are high as players vie for a chance to be among the top four who will advance to the Play-Offs.

As the evening unfolds, the first quarter-final will kick off with an all-Dutch affair between Van Gerwen and the now-absent Van Veen. Each night of the competition will be broadcast live on Sky Sports, ensuring fans do not miss a moment of the action.

Details remain unconfirmed regarding the impact of Van Veen’s withdrawal on the overall standings, but it certainly adds an unexpected layer of tension to the tournament. The excitement continues to build as players prepare for their matches in Dublin.
