PDC Darts World Rankings in full as Luke Littler takes step closer to Luke Humphries

Luke Littler and Luke Humphries are locked in an epic battle for darts' most coveted prize - and it shows no sign of slowing down. 'The Nuke' narrowed the gap at the summit of the PDC Werner Rankings Ladder on Sunday after demolishing his rival 6-1 in the World Grand Prix final.

Littler, 18, cruised to glory in Leicester at the weekend, claiming his fourth major crown of the year after his victories at the World Championship, UK Open and World Matchplay. Humphries, though, still sits at the top the world rankings.

To dethrone 'Cool Hand Luke' from his throne, Littler must overcome roughly a £100,000 gap in prize money from ranking competitions. With the 2025 PDC World Darts Championship looming, though, the 18-year-old has his chance to seize the number one position.

Speaking to the media following his World Grand Prix final triumph over Humphries, Littler revealed his blueprint for becoming world number one. Last week, he said: "This is my time and I've got just got to keep going. Obviously, until I get that world number one spot, I will never call myself the best in the world. Whoever's number one, they're the best.

"But knowing I'm only £70,000 in prize money behind Luke, and then he's got to defend all of his prize money from the Grand Prix, the Players Championships and the World Championship. I don't want to think about it too much, but I could be world number one before that World Championship. I've just got to keep chucking away and put as much pressure as I can on Luke."

Below are the full PDC World Rankings.

1. Luke Humphries - £1,736,250.

Humphries is aiming to regain his world champion title later this year after a memorable victory over Littler in the 2024 final. This year, he's clinched the World Masters, the Premier League and the US Masters, as well as the Czech Darts Open.

2. Luke Littler - £1,665,500.

Littler is just a European Championship, Players' Championship and World Masters win away from securing all major titles. Despite being the current world champion and having his sights set on the world No.1 spot, he's suffered losses in his last two matches, falling to Beau Greaves in the World Youth Championship and Ritchie Edhouse in the first round of the Players Championship 31.

3. Michael van Gerwen - £726,250.

Van Gerwen recently revealed that he's 'recharging his batteries' ahead of the World Championships later this year. Speaking to Darts World, The Green Machine expressed his desire to spend time with his family following a 'tough year'.
