Luke Humphries, the tournament’s top seed, is eliminated early from the Hungarian Darts Trophy after suffering a shock 6-3 defeat to Dirk van Duijvenbode in the second round.
The loss takes place in Budapest, with all reports describing Humphries as the clear favourite crashing out shortly after the tournament begins its main stages. BBC Sport and Yahoo Sports both frame the result as an unexpected upset, highlighting the straight defeat scoreline. Sky News similarly emphasizes the surprise element and repeats that the top seed exits in the second round rather than progressing further in the event.
While the sources differ only in phrasing, they consistently agree on the key match details: the round, the opponents, and the final score. None of the reports add further outcomes from other matches or discuss later tournament developments, focusing primarily on Humphries’ defeat.
