• Teenager savours 6-3 victory in Brighton final
• Humphries and Cross produce nine-darters in defeats

The world champion Luke Littler beat Nathan Aspinall 6-3 to win night five of the Premier League in Brighton, where there were two nine-dart finishes.

Littler, who added the UK Open title to his growing collection last weekend, had too much for Aspinall, closing out his second nightly win to keep the pressure on Luke Humphries at the top of the table. Earlier Humphries, the world No 1, had hit a nine-darter in his quarter-final defeat to Rob Cross, who then also produced a perfect leg as he was later edged out 6-5 by Aspinall.
