MASTER vs APPRENTICE! | Day 13 Evening Highlights | 2023/24 Paddy Power World Darts Championship 

Barney looked like a proud father when he got beat. Like a torch being passed. Amazing stuff.

One of the best sessions in World Championship history, an upset by Dolan in a great game beating Anderson 4-3, Littler demolishing Barney 4-1 with a 105 average and one of the most dramatic games with Humphries barley beating Cullen in a classic. Unreal darts 🎯

That second-last leg was absolutely nerve racking, gutted for Cullen.

Match of the year between Cool Hand and the Rockstar. Absolutely gutted for Joe, but what an unbelievable game of darts.

Heartbreak for joe, feel for him massively😭😭

One of the best nights of Darts I've ever seen, the standard was on another level. Littler and Humphries take a bow, gutted for Cullen though that's one match where neither player deserved to lose!

The way Barney congratulated Littler was very nice to see. Barney must realise Littler has a great future ahead of him and gave him a bit of a pep talk.

That double bust at the end was extraordinary

What an incredible last game that was throughout its entirety. Gutted for Joe who played amazingly and probably should have won but Luke has balls of steel. To come back to 2-2 in sets in the way he did was good but the 100 and 86 checkouts to save the match, and his scoring in the very last leg of the match on the Cullen darts, were extraordinary. A classic that neither player deserved to lose

OMG i have just about recovered from that. What a scintillating night of darts. Where do i even start. What a first match between Dolan and Anderson to start off the evening. The comeback from 0-2 to 3-2 from Gary and then Dolan winning the next 2 sets to take the match. Then the much anticipated match between a legend of the game in Barney taking on the next superstar of darts Littler and oh my word that guy is super special. To play like that at the age of 16 in the last 16 really makes me question his age. How on earth can u be that good. The cover shooting was absolutely unreal. I was in awe of what i was watching and he was doing it to Barney who wasnt playing bad himself but theres not much u can do when ur getting nuked like that. I did tell my family that even though that Barney Littler game was the one everyone was looking forward to, Humpries v Cullen would be a fantastic game which would be nip and tuck and i have to say that is one of the best matches i have ever seen. The drama, the pressure in the final set, how topsy turvy it was. What a way to end 2023 with one of, if not the best match of the year. What unbelievable drama with Humphries missing set darts in set 1 and being 2-0 down then getting it back to 2-2, then missing multiple set darts again in set 5 and going 3-2 down before getting it back to 3-3 and then that final set oh my goodness probably the best set ill ever see. Pure drama and the guys produced some of their best stuff in THE most pressure moments. When its 2-0 Cullen u think it may be over soon and then Cullen missed match darts on the back end of the 93 checkout and Humphries takes it to a tie break, then the first ton+ checkouts of the match take place on back to back legs and Humphries under pressure was unreal, taking out 100 with a Tops Tops finish with Cullen on 44 for the match and then the 86 checkout in 2 darts with Cullen waiting on 50 again for the match. Then Luke breaks and throwing for the match u think hes won it for sure and then the tension and drama as both players miss multiple chances under great pressure and we deserved a last leg decider to end 2023 and Humphries once again under the utmost pressure against the throw wins it on D10 with last dart in hand. I mean u cant write this stuff, its just darts at its best. Onto the new year and the quarter finals i simply cant wait for this. The business end of the tournament is here and may the best man win.

One of the best damn world darts championship sessions ever!!! Dolan upsets Gary Anderson 4-3, Littler destroying the 5 time world champion Raymond Van Barneveld averaging 105, and the incredible drama of Humphries and Cullen that went all the way to sudden death, what a night of darts!!! This year’s world championship is an absolutely special one!!!

Great humility and respect shown by both Luke and Barney. Good luck Luke, amazing darts..

I've been watching darts for over two years and this was one of the most emotional session I've ever seen. Every second was interesting. EDIT: Imagine the bookmaker's odds for the Dolan-Littler quarterfinal. I don't know who to root for. I love both of them.

What a truly beautiful moment when Barneveld put his arms around Littler 😢❤

I cannot remember a more exciting run up to the finals of any dart competition ever. That Humphries , Cullen match was edge of your seat viewing

Littler's got school in the morning. Cullen's got therapy.

Littler and Barneys hug after Lukes win hit me in the feels for real tho

Incredible how Brendan Dolan can surprise the experts everytime very happy for him. Littler is just out of this world. For him nerves are not existing. Yeah and Humphries lost again all of his 7 lifes, but Cullen got a deja vu from the Premier League final and bottled it again after such a great performance. Very interested for the quarter finals

One of the best sessions of darts I’ve seen. Luke Littler is a champion in the making. Feel for Cullen he played to the end and gave his all, what a game!

Historic stuff...16 yr old Little Luke v Grand Master Barney, who's career spans decades....and what a way to win!

RVB total Gent 👏

Sucks we have to settle for a Littler/Dolan quarter instead of a final. Two best stories of the tournament this year.

I can say it now, Humphries vs Cullen match of tournament.

Humphries vs Cullen - WHAT A BATTLE, WOW! Instant classic.

As the Tournament progreeses, the drama & tension is wracking up! As the late Sid Waddell would say, "To sum it up in one word: Magic Darts!"

Darts just keeps getting better and better. Luke Littler is no joke out there. We have a mega new star in the sport whatever happens from here. Do we dare believe he can become the youngest ever world champion? He certainly does! And why not? God I love this sport.

Cullen's trebles deserted him just when he needed them most. Think he went about 18 darts without a treble in that final set, and that killed him off. He should have won that match.

Anderson playin well is like our new dog takin a dump. He only does it on the floor.

Luke vs Joe was so intense!!! Might be the most intense game i've ever seen!!!

What a way for Luke to show the whole world *why* he should be considered a World Championship contender! Unflappable where it really counted.🤩

Best session of the tournament so far, talk about saving the best until last my word. The only thing somewhat sad is seeing these old legends not quite have that extra gear they once did, it truly feels like the end of an era is coming for some of the best players ever.

I have only been following darts for this years World Championship but watching Humpries versus Cullen was unreal.

OMG,what an amazing round of darts,what do U say to an astounding showmanship of darts, thanks to all who provide this viewing, we all had to pay per view yrs ago, thanks RU-vid,( Aussie John).

Wow, Brendan!! Another huge victory. You're usually a whipping boy. Go on son, good luck, go and win it.

WHAT AN INCREDIBLE LAST MATCH HUMPHRIES how in the world did he clutch that

OMG!!! Cullen an Humphries WOW!!

I have NEVER been glued to the screen like I was during that Cullen vs humphries match. Absolutely amazing. The most back and forth, close darts game I have ever seen.

Wow, can’t quite believe Gary missed those darts to level it up at 2 legs each especially the 128z Dolans calmness on the pressure doubles is admirable. Fair play to him. Im sure Gary will be back

Best session of darts ever gutted for cullen... but congratss luke and luke

John Part's voice going at the perfect time.

That Cullen humphries game was immense modern classic game

Heartbreaking joe 💔 you will get it one day

Gotta feel for Cullen 😔😔

These PM games were so fire! Was awesome to watch!

Stunning!

Unbelievable last match.. john part commentary 👌☝️💯👍

Luke and Joe, thanks for a Epic match!! Wow!!!!

Luke and Joe one of the best matches in the history of the world darts championship I dare say better than then last year's final

Luke is a breath of fresh air and hopefully youngens will be motivated by him 😊 Luke is Astonishing for his Age 😱 oh what a Dammmm last Game 😱

Oh man what ending of that final match!!

Littlers run is unbelievable

I’ve never seen a darts match as exciting and intense as Luke vs Joe. Just wow

I just can't believe Littler is 16, he looks like 36. But great victory, no doubt.

D best game i've ever seen humpries vs cullen....salute to both of u.....

What a last match of the year!!

It was priceless on the last leg by Littler on that 170. To hit the two triple 20s, refuse the bull and take double 10 to the boos of the crowd. Had he missed the bull and got 25 his task would have been much more difficult. Instead he set himself up. Hitting that double 10 with his third dart and leaving double 15 only an inch lower on the board was genius. I think we are seeing the Ronnie O'Sullivan of darts!!! I hope he wins the whole thing. Good luck young man.

Good double 15 first dart by littler to win match 😊 and the Cullen Humphries match amazing

Barney’s behaviour during matches is exemplary, no theatricals or bad blood, just great darts. Beaten by a prodigy that we shall be seeing for decades.

OK, that's legit one of the top 5 games I've ever seen in my life. What a match.

You know the session was really great for PDC to post almost 50mins of it💯💯

I could never take to Humphries for some reason but man what composure. Everytime he is on the brink he just finds a way too win. Incredible!

The fact the only time humphriss was ahead was in the very last few legs of the entire match was extraordinary still suprised he won in the end

Raymond you were brilliant and rolled back the years and didn’t get a sniff bar that miss in the 3rd set, littler wow

Glorious sport

Wow, WOW. WOW!!!! And that's why you're called Cool Hand Luke!!!

My favourite day of darts that I can remember, insane throughout. Outstanding.

Littler is ruthless. Take aim hits it every time so quick so precise and ruthless finish on the double.

Feel bad for joe, almost feels like Luke's got plot armor at this point😅

ONE OF THE BEST MATCH EVER SEEN ... WHAT AN END OF THE YEAR 2023

what game to end the night. a classic. unlucky joe and well done luke.

The Cullins v Humphries would have been a great nail biting final

Say what you want about darts but its bloody fantastic entertainment.

I'm liking Littler's lack of theatrics when he wins a leg , makes a change from all the posing

I wouldn't be surprised if Littler actually becomes world champion. Nothing seems to faze him despite being only 16 years old.

we are witnessing history with littler, absolutely outstanding

PLEASE DON'T SPOIL IN THE THUMBNAIL PDC! everyone that has watched 3 sessions of darts in their life knows that the player on the left of such a camera shot is always the winner. Also spoiled Chisnall winning earlier in the day

Here before the 'he looks 35' comments as if we didnt already know

Really pleased they brought the go-go girls back to the stage, what on earth were they thinking of dropping these delicious festive treats. Thank you.

Great day of darts all round....I'm exhausted now!

No sound

The booing Humphries and Dolan was ridiculous.

Well played Joe Cullen but Luke Humphries deserved that win, his double double tops was amazing and then near the end when both kept missing and busting their doubles was crazy

AMAZING Dolan vs Anderson !!!

'Heil Littler' is the funniest comment I've seen in ages on X

Hey PDC I beg that we get a single upload of the last set of Cullen Vs Humphries, it was one of the most dramatic and unbelievable sets of all time and deserves to be preserved on RU-vid. Please and thank you Edit: or the entire match if possible! Was back and forth stuff, high averages, multiple 9 dart attempts

holy smokes, both luke and joe hitting treble 20's in the sudden death leg like its nothing. really sad for Joe, he deserved that but luke was better throughout the year. amazing i dont know when i was this hyped in a darts match

Who doesn't love it when It comes to a sudden death round

That Littler kid is certainly rocking the Jocky Wilson bod.😁

Who on earth done barneys hair 😂

Littler is just insane

Littler averaging 105+ over 5 sets, at 16, is insane.

Heart breaker Joe. What a match.

42:30 Humphries an Cullen was nothing short of nerve racking. Hats off to both of them gentlemen 👌

Littler is absolute the future talent darter. Former junior dart Champion. Would like to see Little vs. MVG or Humphries vs. Little

I haven't watched darts in a while (a few year specifically) and this video alone makes me wanna watch the remaining matches lol , i admit that i skipped to the end on the last match cause i was like it surely won't top the other 2 but oh boy was i wrong lol

OMG, what a match at the end. Has to be the final. Brilliant darts from both.

Wow wow wow wow what a game of darts , well done to both Luke and Joe a fantastic performance by both of you, and also Luke littler what an incredible lot of young players we have now 🎉 congratulations to all . Happy new year 🥳

id like to thank the crowd for being amazing an the players top entertainment

The best game ever between Humphries and Cullen!!! What a game!!

I've re-watched the end of this at least 5 times now
