MIKE DE DECKER ignored an interview with Sky Sports just moments after winning the World Grand Prix Darts.
The 100-1 outsider stunned No1 slinger Luke Humphries to seal victory in Leicester last night.

De Decker secured a 6-4 win for his first-ever major TV title.
And the Belgian pocketed a cool £120,000 jackpot in the process.
De Decker is now 25th in the darts world rankings, 11 up from his position of 36th before yesterday’s final.
But despite his success, he remains a man of the people.
Immediately after winning the match, De Decker was summoned by Sky Sports for a live on-stage TV interview.
Viewers at home waited with bated breath for the ace’s thoughts on his incredible win against an icon in Humphries.
However, De Decker was not overly concerned about appearing on the box.
And instead, he interacted with fans in the crowd as they threw their phones at him for group selfies.

De Decker certainly appeared to be in his element as he soaked up the party atmosphere.
But Sky Sports were left hanging around on the sideline waiting for their big chat.

The TV pundit, who did not appear on screen, said: “Mike if we can grab you just for a second…
“He says he doesn’t like the spotlight but we think he’s getting used to it now.
“A huge occasion, people are throwing their phones up for selfies.”
De Decker also knocked out Gary Anderson, James Wade and Dimitri van den Bergh on his way to victory.
And the Belgian admitted he was “over the moon” with his first major TV title.
He said: “The way Luke has been playing this last year until now has been brilliant,.
“Being the person that beats him this weekend in the final, picking up this trophy, I have no words, I’m so, so, so, so, so, so, so happy.
“I was cool in patches. In the beginning, I was really, really, really nervous, then I calmed down. I went 4-1 up, he came back to 4-4. I started to get nerves again but I did it.
“I lost my card, wasn’t on tour, got my card back. My best friend, my mum, everyone, they have all been behind me and thanks to them I won this trophy. I am over the moon.”
