Humphries and Price Set to Clash in World Grand Prix Final in Leicester

Final clash confirmed: the concluding match of the World Grand Prix in Leicester will see Gerwyn Price and Luke Humphries meet on Sunday as both players pursue a second title in the distinctive double-start tournament. The encounter brings two of the sport’s leading names together for a final that will decide this edition’s champion.

The World Grand Prix is played under the double-start format, which requires competitors to both begin and finish each leg on a double. That structure adds an additional tactical element compared with standard events and has shaped many high-profile matches at this tournament. The Leicester final therefore presents a particular test of scoring rhythm and finishing under pressure.

Both men arrive at the final having navigated several rounds of the event to reach the last match; each is aiming to add a second World Grand Prix crown to their records. A victory on Sunday will strengthen the winner’s tally of major titles and will be recorded as an important achievement in their professional careers.

The match in Leicester closes the double-start event for this year and will provide a definitive result for the tournament. Spectators and followers of the competition will see which of the two contenders secures a second World Grand Prix triumph when the final is played on Sunday.
