Both players have the opportunity to crown their careers with the triple crown - while Humphries is fighting for all titles, Littler still lacks the victory at the World Matchplay.

darts is a game based on precision and tactics. The players usually start with 301 or 501 points and have to alternately remove their points with the aim of reaching exactly zero. A common goal is the "Double Out", in which the game has to be ended on a double field. Variations in the point system and different game modes contribute to the dynamics of an darts tournament, and the dramaturgical element of the game is reinforced by the nervousness and pressure in the competition.
