Darts World Masters Results: Luke Littler and Stephen Bunting beaten in quarter-finals

Bunting won opening set against Dutchman Noppert but then had a catalogue of missed doubles to blame as he quickly fell 3-1 behind in sets.

The Liverpublian missed 11 attempts at double in a row as Noppert hoovered up six consecutive legs to move to the brink over victory.

Bunting is a fighter though, and his response was impressive as he won four of the next five legs to ***** a decider – which quickly went to the very last leg.

Noppert missed the first match dart, but Bunting’s double troubles struck again as he missed three darts for the match to allow his opponent to nail double eight and clinch victory.

“He had me under pressure from the off,” Bunting told ITV4 after the match. “Whether I’m ahead or 10 nil down I always believe I’ve got the game to win, but Danny was unbelievable there and kept his head at the end.”

Humphries had few problems with Heta as he averaged just over 104 and hit six 180s to power into the last four – and said he would be heading back to bed before the evening semis.

“I slowed down my throw just a little tiny bit and that seemed to work for me, so tonight when I come back I’m going to keep it there,” said Humphries.

“Now I can go back for a nice sleep, come back tonight and hopefully I can perform at those levels again and if I do then it’s going to take a good performance to beat me.”
