LUKE LITTLER survived by the skin of his teeth to beat Gerwyn Price at the World Grand Prix.
The reigning world champion looked all at sea in the dramatic quarter-final, but managed to squeeze through.

Commentator Wayne Mardle called the contest “one of the weirdest ever”.
But Littler didn’t care as he somehow reached the last four, where he’ll face Price’s Welsh compatriot Jonny Clayton.
Speaking to Sky Sports moments after his win, Littler said of the contest: “Very very strange, obviously not happy going 2-0 down, first and second set I was on the wire, couldn’t get the doubles in.
“I just said it’s now or never, you just have to switch on.
“I switched, going for double 16s. Everyone knows double 16 is the double that got me World Championships.
“As soon as I started to come back Gezzy was missing and I knew I had to pounce on it.”
