LUKE HUMPHRIES is a really dull world champion, right?
He has beaten anxiety issues, which once drove him to the brink of quitting darts, lost 4st in weight during lockdown and, since conquering his demons, has shunned the trappings of a "rock 'n' roll" lifestyle.
This morning he is £500,000 richer after winning his first PDC World Championship at Alexandra Palace and beating the boy wonder whose fairytale had gripped the nation. And today he will meet Prime Minister Rishi Sunak at 10 Downing Street!
Now Humphries show off the Sid Waddell Trophy at Elland Road to his fellow Leeds fans and win the World Cup of Darts for England.
And for the former roofer, every night is now a night on the tiles. Yeah, Humphries has a really boring backstory, doesn't he?
