Clayton Dominates, Humphries Climbs in Premier League

0:00On April 17th, Johnny Clayton just dominated in Rotterdam, taking down Teenage Sensation, Luke Littleer, six frames to four in the Premier League Darts. Final. That gives the Welshman back-to-back nightly victories and his fourth win of the season, putting him five points clear at the top of the table. Clayton had to grind through some tough matches first, sweeping home-favorite Michael Van Garwin six-two and quarters, and edging Josh Rock six-five in. Simmy's? Littleer fought back from booze all night, stemming from his class with Dutch star Jean Van Vien two weeks back, but he still reached the final after, beating Garwin Price and World number two, Luke Humphries. The crowd went wild for the Dutch duo Van Vien and Van Garwin, but both crashed out early. Van Vien lost six-two to Humphries, and Van Garwin fell too. Clayton. Clayton stayed ice-cool, even after litterer jumped to a two-nothing lead with a barrage of 180s, finishing strong on doubles at 60%. Now Humphries climbs to fifth, just three points off Van Garwin and fourth, keeping the playoff chase wide open. Clayton's fueled by haters calling him a bottom finisher favorite, he watched tape, got motivated, and proved them wrong.

1:13With both Clayton and Littleer locked in for the 0-2 playoffs on May 28th, eyes turned to Liverpool this Thursday where Humphries faces. Litterer and more fireworks await in the top four battle.
