WRIGHT RESET 

Peter Wright reveals why Luke Littler and Luke Humphries prompted him to GET RID of World Darts Championship trophy

PETER WRIGHT has got rid of all his trophies – as he looks for a major reset in his career.

Snakebite, 54, has taken inspiration from Luke Littler and Luke Humphries in a bid to challenge for another world crown.

Wright enjoyed a mini resurgence at last month’s PDC World Championship after reaching the quarter-final stage.

The 54-year-old knocked out defending champion Humphries and looked back to his best at Ally Pally.

It came after a horror show at the Premier League of Darts, with Wright almost walking away from the game altogether.

The Scot endured a nightmare two-year run in the competition – winning two of 18 matches – and looked like a shell of his former self.

“It proves what you can do and achieve if you put the hard work in.

“Luke Littler is the best thing I’ve ever seen on TV! That’s why he has inspired me to get my finger out.”

Wright decided to part with all his past trophies, built up over two decades.

He continued: “I have got rid of all my trophies, got rid of all my darts, so I can start afresh.

“I want new trophies this year. Last year was terrible and the year before that was terrible.

“But I’m looking forward to playing this year.

“I took time off last year and it didn’t work, we saw that in the Premier League.
