Defending champion Luke Littler silenced the boo boys to edge out world No 1 Luke Humphries 6-5 in Glasgow and pick up his first nightly win of the Premier League season.
The world champion staged a remarkable fightback from 5-1 down to defeat Rob Cross in the opening match of the night before beating Michael van Gerwen and then halting Humphries' bid for back-to-back nightly wins to kick off his season. Humphries came to the stage bothered by a cut to his finger but it did not seem to trouble his game as the rivals went at it hammer and tongs from the off.
Meanwhile, Humphries recovered from 4-2 down with four legs on the spin to deny Gerwyn Price and set up a blockbuster final with Littler. 'Cool Hand' finished with a 102 average, hitting five 180s and 50 per cent on the doubles, including finishes of 134, 105 and 99.
