LUKE HUMPHRIES recorded a 4-1 win over Dimitri Van den Bergh to reach the last 16 of the 2018/19 William Hill World Darts Championship.
A winner of eight Development Tour titles, Humphries picked up where he left off from his 3-1 victory over Stephen Bunting by storming into a two-set lead, winning both on last-leg deciders.
World Youth Champion Van den Bergh pulled a set back, only for Humphries to slam the door in the Belgian's face by reeling off six of the last seven legs to seal his place in the last 16 where he will take on reigning champion Rob Cross.
