Baltic Sea Darts Open 2024: Schedule, results, start time, stream, TV channel as Luke Littler suffers first-round exit

DARTS has been nothing short of entertaining this season and the PDC European Tour continues THIS weekend with the Baltic Sea Open in Germany.

Dave Chisnall will be hoping to retain his title after beating Luke Humphries 8-5 in last year’s final.

And the Englishman looked destined to eventually come face to face with Luke Littler who is now front and center of the sport.

Littler, 17, is currently top of the Premier League Darts leaderboards after winning a second successive weekly event last Thursday.

Furthermore, The Nuke has been incredible on this European Tour – winning the Belgian and Austrian Open.

However, Littler suffered a shock first-round exit at the hands of World No 97 Wessel Nijman.
