EURO TOUR EPIC! Peter Wright v Luke Littler | 2024 German Darts Championship

if he does go on and beat Luke ller here given the context and given the Run of players he has had to face it might be one of his best ever European tour titles he's won eight before only Michael vanen has won more than that but he beat Nico Springer the very highly rated German Masters champion Steven bunting the brilliant can van vay Michael vanon with a stunning display and then the top seed Dave chisel McCarthy is alongside me to see if snake bite the humble unseeded Plucky guy who had to play in round one who's also a two-time world champion and the rning European Champion can take ller out yes Plucky yet one of the all-time greats of darts it's such a mouthwatering final in Prospect it his youth versus experience Luke ler has been Fearless throughout his entire PDC career so far a career that has only lasted 8 months but he has achieved things that no one else has achieved the eyes that are on the sport now he is devastating and Peter Wright despite playing brilliant throughout the course of the weekend particularly against Michael vanin has got his hands full that 180 from ller makes it 22 for the tournament the record is 30 that he set in Belgium on his Euro tour debut thing was unseeded then played an extra round he came in at round two here he's already on 22 he could break the record Double 12 11 dark start from ller Peter to throw first breaking his own record in one fewer game look he's got it a lot 180s but you've just seen what he's done in the semis well if Peter right plays well then Luke ler will get opportunities but that was a devastating start 140 liter has taken care of Peter right in their four previous meetings three times in the Premier League he went into exhibition mode with a treble tops finish he also met in the Poland darts Masters so the first rank meeting between them I think he's still feeling fresh from that gy performance carried on from what he was doing against gurnie this is astonishing yeah and we know that pet rer struggled for quite a while in the games he's played against liter a couple of them he's been brilliant and he's still lost lost in Poland with 109 average lost one of those Premier League games with 103 average 85 P require L on a two Peter Wright looking for yet another massive checkout this weekend he's taking out 161 and 43 six ton plus finishes over the course of the tournament but he's not going to make it seven with that 60 luk requir 96 the back-to-back 11 darters double 18 double n 78 chance for Peter R and even in these early exchanges you feel these kinds of chances of title now he's made a habit of taking out these sorts of checkouts this weekend Ops to switch to single 10 for Tops and it doesn't work out for him L does he split or does he go at it does split double eight two n lot ller L ller worrying start for Peter Wright 174 not a 180 but it's as good as beat Rob cross in Belgium in his Euro tour debut in the final that was 87 and then picked up another one by sweeping aside Joe cullin he's by far the better player in Gratz won that one by eight legs to four still only lost two games on the Euro tour in 19 matches it's a 90% win R silly numbers silly outfit yeah you imagine that both Luke humre and vessel nman are quite smok to be members of that club to have beaten little on this stage Tu at a couple of bulls eyes there valute ller just the 304 points clear of P right in this third leg Yeah you don't need to practice those you won the ball in the back room Luke 58 Peter right is already in danger of being completely overwhelmed 72 quickness of thought tea up tops yeah he can kind of do what he wants in there can he he luk go for a third leg on the spin thir regulation start from luk ller it's only taken him 38 darts to win the first three legs of this an average of 11 18.66 which is to the decimal the current Euro tour record average set by Dave chisel against Mark Webster In This Very building 45 he was vulnerable against Ryan s s did not play well did not take advantage Damon heta looked like he was going to take advantage of a slow start from ller and led 4-1 could not get over the line but when he has started well in games this weekend he's been Untouchable 140 a response from Peter Wright heck of a response as he happens backto back maximums to leave himself on 50 that could be completed with one Dart I only say that because it is Peter Wright where's he looking yeah he's at the 10 anyway [Music] 30 just to try and assert himself I think it was and that will go down as three darts missed at Double there as well miss at ball tops and 10 will come back double five there it is 14 da from Peter right to get on the board in this [Applause] game not a man to be cowed is piece of snake bite right when you dress like that you're really going to go into your share line he's hoping it's something of a superhero costume this evening 96 might need to be against someone averaging [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause] 110 134 fourth time he's been in the final of this event Peter wght lost in the final a couple of times including last year it took that unbelievable display of finishing from Ricardo Petco did not miss a single dart at Double but Peter right knows what it's like to dish out those kind of performances remember in s brooken one year he beat Bonito Vander pass hitting his last six starts at Double in and beating Bonito despite Bonito averaging 110 in that final one of the biggest Euro Tor Mings you have ever seen 54 he's at it again he's in again it's another maximum ller with a third 180 of this match 24 now for the tournament 45 luk requires 68 16 for double 10 is his preferred route of choice 48 plenty of time to tidy that up good adjustment 81 L all right gives him a shot at 1 30 if there is a mistake there could beame the if there has been a weakness for L this weekend he has missed some dots at Double particularly at those double 10 double five targets but no mistake this time 4-1 he has four legs four more a champion once again on the European tour nobody has won more than one of these titles so far this year apart from ller who's looking to get a third 57 and even though some of his doubling has on occasion been ropy the current percentage for the tournament stands at 42 1 12% that's going to win you a lot of matches just seems have missed him in clumps doesn't he did it against G he miss missed six in the first leg and then just carried on pinning them first or second off there's been a bit of that against s there was some of that against heta there was some of that once the motor is running he's been superb Peter right digging in a third maximum for him whatever happens this is a massive weekend for Peter Ry but the feeling of winning getting hold of a title surely that would be such a boost to him 94 there was a danger actually this start of the weekend Peter right the reigning European Champion might become the first ever European Champion not to qualify for the subsequent European Championship he's blown those fears out the water with his run yet 170 however he's staring down the barrel of a 5-1 deficit 60 Luke 8 180 for ler means he should get a dart at least at the Bull's Eye better than that double 14 can't take the chance you require micro millimet away Peter right wants 110 again it's that category of checkout where he's been so good this weekend he might be good again he's got a choice of 18 or 10 chooses the latter to leave tops Peter right holds on it's a brilliant 110 checkout it's only a hold of throw but it does keep him in [Applause] touch you're right those shots have been been vital to Peter R this weekend still in [Applause] it 6 can't imagine that Peter wght can win this game if that Gap in the averages is maintained between now and the end of it but he did when he beat Steven bunting average nine points less than the bullet but he doesn't have to be averaging the same or more than lit though he just has to be in the same kind of Ball [Applause] P well that's going to be difficult against this lad it's 180 number five this could actually happen he could break or equal his own Euro tour record for 180s having played one fewer game than when he did in Belgium cuz now he's a SE [Applause] 100 as he go tops tops no it was a good guide for the treble to leave double 10 Luke ler leads by five legs to two it's a 12 Darter and he's on course to break his own European tour record average he's on 11.82% Jermaine what Aina back in Visa oh it's just not stopping he is not stopping this is obscene from ller 18 even the great Peter Wright looks flued at this challenge 96 for a number of years on the European tour Michael vanen might look vulnerable in in a game over the weekend sometimes he was in vulnerable he brilliant and coaster to title after title won 36 of these over the years but if he did look vulnerable you needed to take him out then because he wouldn't give you another chance and Luke ller is making you feel like that about this weekend cuz Ryan s had a chance Damon heta had a chance nobody's had match darts against [Applause] him but how do you beat this Peter W's giving it a go it's another big checkout for snake bik his eighth ton plus finish of the weekend and he's needing to pull these out just to stay in it and look at this response [Applause] staggering darts 81 Luke ller has on a number of occasions this week and teas the perfect leg he's the wrong side of the wire 79 waiting will have to go on if we do want a perfect leg but it's been close to Perfection from l so far we saw him smashing 114 average in the Premier League early this year against Michael vano and he took him apart that is his personal best he's at that level here 19 there's only one leg in this match where he hasn't had a perfect scoring visit 7180 is a 174 it's a Max and Peter right but not enough to leave a finish L knows he's got a couple of visits from here for [Applause] 63 6 could have been better do a little glimmer of hope for Peter right to try and get the leg against the DTs make it back on throw 105 Luke requir 92 after this barrage of scoring Luke ller he's in danger of being broken double double of course oh just inside thought it looked inevitable he was going to go7 this break ller double top to cut the Gap to one leg that wire moved oh Peter Wright will not be moved somehow Peter Wright is managing to stick with Luke L's averaging 111 in this final there's a 19point disparity and yet in the next two minutes Peter wght could level this game at five a piece look little looks chilled out enough in the background seem to be nodding his head along to the Peter right chance 6 42 131 79 think you could hear an anguished groan from snake bite then he knows he's playing an opponent where he he can't afford mistakes bad darts get punished has to fill it up to get to a [Applause] finish and he's not quite done it luk ler you expect him to go for this you always do not going give himself a chance at the ball's eye 100 a ton is okay 14 Luke reques to break the throw back Peter right is poised 20 for TOPS oh drags that well to the left it does leave a favored double at least but we expect Peter right to take this for a level game this is unbelievable Luke ller is firing in big scores vizy after vizy after vizy and somehow Peter Wright has dragged himself back from 4-1 down to be level lit's level has not really dropped he's still averaging [Applause] 110 I said when Peter Wright won in s brooken a few years ago beat Bonito Vander pass in the final despite Bonito averaging 110 that's the biggest mugging in Euro tour history we could have a new Contender here if he wins this [Music] 140 look at the disparity and yet Peter right has timed things very very well he wasn't in the game for the first three legs of this L ller back on his 180 tip one away from equaling the record here record 85 he already had seven four visit legs in this tournament this would be an eighth if he gets it done in this turn double 10 surely not Peter right who has been pulling out massive combo finishes all tournament and sometimes at crucial moments this would be to lead treble 17 91 Luke requir often Troublesome double five for Luke ller should be a good guide so should that but it wasn't what is happening here in [Applause] hildesheim double top Peter Wright is leading this final that is what is happening it's pet thr first game four legs on the Spin Six of the last eight for snake by [Applause] 100 there's still a 14-point difference 59 won't just be a mugging it'll be a kicking as [Applause] well this might actually happen 121 it is an astonishing display of resilience from Peter snake by [Applause] right and yet liter is back into it you can see some anger from the teenager he has just equaled his own record for 180s in a euro toour event playing one fewer game than when he did it in Belgium 95 ller could get to a Finish First 56 he doesn't slack visit from Peter R not sufficiently punished they go to the bull [Applause] here oh he's that good he hits the ball when he doesn't want it [Applause] 56 is lot little rattled is he rocked you saw a bit of Anger from him a few moments ago Peter right to turn the screw double two oh no but is he safe he's in the mad house ller way back on 150 but he could go dou 15 120 and he is getting rattled here there's a shout in the crowd I did he's heard it of course he's annoyed he's lost four legs on the spin it might be about to be five he's played unbelievably and he is losing this final he might be about to lose it forame utterly astonishing the are there any words to describe the madness on stage Luke little is still [Applause] Furious there are records going all over the place here record 18s for Luke ller each one thrown with Fury Peter Wright could be about to win a game despite a record Gap in the averages he could be about to go second on the alltime list in Euro tour title wins astonishing night in Hill Des time it's not over [Applause] yet ller has just got to find levels of composure that bely's young years bely his lack of experience Peter right might just have this game in the palm of his hands he's going for a 180 he hits said 180 Luke ller is in a position where he might have to take out 167 and he might just do that treble 19 missed requ to win a sixth leg on the spin for one of the most remarkable Euro tour victories ever maybe his best it's unbelievable Peter Ray is the German darts championship winner once again again he has withstood everything ller threw at him the record number of 180s 107 average and somehow Peter Wright has found a way to win again the European Champion is the German darts championship winner for the second time in his career
