Result: Humphries 1-6 Littler<\/p>\n
Luke Littler speaking to Sky Sports after winning the 2025 World Grand Prix title: “Very happy to tick it off, it’s not the easiest tournament to win. This week has been so tough. Now I’ve picked the trophy up, this is one I can tick off and there’s not many left.<\/p>\n
On performing under pressure: “That’s what I’ve learned in the past from the Matchplay, I have got to perform the big out shots and the big scores when Luke does put me under pressure. I think I played very well tonight. Luke was always behind me, I couldn’t step off the gas. I’m just very happy to win.<\/p>\n
On missing the nine-darter: “Even when I hit the 180, I just said to myself ‘have a go,’ but I didn’t get it. There’s always so many years to try and get that nine-darter in the double start. I’m just very happy to win.”<\/p>\n
On his performances this week: “I hit the 170, I hit all the 180s. Just the nine-darter that I’m missing. Very happy to win.”<\/p>\n
On the race for world number one: “It’s definitely not a lot of prize money, especially what we guys play for. Luke will know I’m behind his back now, I’m onto him.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"‘Luke will know I’m behind his back now’ – Littlerpublished at 21:51 BST 21:51 BST Result: Humphries 1-6…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":195823,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[49,50,51,47,52,48],"class_list":{"0":"post-195822","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-top-news","11":"tag-top-stories","12":"tag-topnews","13":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/195822","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=195822"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/195822\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/195823"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=195822"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=195822"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=195822"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
