Peter Wright fires back at doubters and vows to knock Luke Littler and Luke Humphries out of World Darts Championship

0

PETER WRIGHT is motivated to bash up the two oche Lukes and show that darts is A Country for Old Men.

Snakebite, 54, has been throwing darts for three decades but says his hunger has been ramped up by the recent emergence of Luke Littler and Luke Humphries.

Teen sensation Littler is 17 while Humphries is 29 but the Scotsman, who is a grandfather, is not ready to give up yet – even if the beard is much greyer these days.

Wright plays speedster Jermaine Wattimena in round three after Christmas.

And the two-time world champion said: “People think: ‘Oh, he should be retiring, he should be going to the old git’s thing.’ No, I’m not ready for that yet.

“I’m ready to upset Luke Littler. I’m here to upset Luke Humphries. I believe I can win it.

“I won one of the European Tours, beat Luke Littler in the final, won six legs on the trot. You can overlook me if you like, I don’t care.

“What drives me on? Luke Humphries and Luke Littler. Because I know I can still compete with them.

“What I’m doing in practice, I can compete with these guys and be better than them.

“I’m 54 coming up to 55 in March next year and Gary (Anderson) spurs me on as well. These old guys can still do it.

“I believe I’ve got the game. My practice and everything is better than I was when I first came and won it and told you all I was going to win it. That’s how I feel.”

Wright – who dressed up as a purple santa for his 3-1 second-round struggle over Wesley Plaisier – said: “I’ve given out all my presents this year.

“It’s unbelievable. All the people that have beaten me, it’s only down to my own self because I played rubbish. But they have had their presents.

“They ain’t having no more. You have had them. No present this Christmas.”
