Cool Hand Luke — the 2023 PDC World Champion at just 23, defeating Luke Littler in the final and establishing himself as the game's dominant force going into the mid-2020s.

Luke Humphries burst into public consciousness at the 2023-24 PDC World Championship in Alexandra Palace. He defeated teenage sensation Luke Littler 6-2 in the final to become World Champion at 23, the culmination of a rapid rise through the PDC ranks. His calm demeanour under pressure earned him the nickname "Cool Hand Luke." He reached the world number one ranking in 2024 and has been a consistent major final performer.

He became world number one shortly after his World Championship victory — completing a remarkable rise from relative obscurity to the top of the sport in under two years.
