World Grand Prix: James Wade thrashes Gian van Veen to book Luke Humphries semi-final after Gerwyn Price edges thriller Luke Humphries beat Niels Zonneveld to book a semi-final meeting with James Wade, while Nathan Aspinall will play Gerwyn Price in the last four; watch the World Grand Prix semi-finals live on Saturday from 8pm on Sky Sports+ and 8.30pm on Sky Sports Main Event Friday 2 October 2026 22:48, UK Gerwyn Price survived three match darts to beat Jonny Clayton in a final-leg thriller at the World Grand Prix, as James Wade emphatically dumped out Gian van Veen in Leicester. Price battled back from two sets down in an absorbing all-Welsh contest at the Mattioli Arena, where he won six of the next seven legs to level the match before Clayton edged ahead in a dramatic final set. Clayton missed a match dart to win the set in straight legs and saw Price drag the contest into a last-leg decider, where 'The Ferret' wasted two more match-winning darts to allow his compatriot to snatch victory and a semi-final spot. - Day 5 recap: World Grand Prix as it happened - World Grand Prix Darts schedule and results - Luke Littler dumped out on opening night - Latest Sky Sports deals or stream no contract Price will face Nathan Aspinall, who fired a 105.15 average - the fourth highest in World Grand Prix history and best in a quarter-final - during his straight-sets win over Ryan Joyce, with the other two matches also offering big storylines.
