Luke Littler dominated Dirk van Duijvenbode 17-5 to reach the World Matchplay final, where he will face Gerwyn Price. Littler, averaging over 109 in all tournament matches, aims to join Phil Taylor and Michael van Gerwen as back-to-back winners. His streak of 28 successive wins in games with 20+ legs continues, with his last defeat in such matches dating back to the 2024 World Championship.

Price, despite their rivalry and on-stage antics, has not beaten Littler in matches exceeding 15 legs and faces a significant challenge. Littler denied Price's actions affect him, focusing instead on establishing an early lead. The final begins Sunday at 20:05 BST, preceded by the Women's World Matchplay featuring top seeds Beau Greaves and Lisa Ashton.
