From 3-0 down to the trophy: Humphries ends 18 months of heartbreak

Luke Humphries trailed Gerwyn Price 3-0 in the World Grand Prix final at Leicester's Mattioli Arena on Sunday and looked finished. Instead, the 30-year-old Englishman clawed back six of the next seven sets to win 6-4, surviving a final-leg decider and taking the £150,000 (about $204,000) top prize. It ends 18 months of runner-up heartache: Humphries had lost a string of major finals and called this his first ranked TV title since February 2025. His first thought? Taking the trophy home to his son, who will finally see his dad lift something other than a runner-up plate.
