‘The Nuke’ has gone since from strength to strength, winning the Grand Slam, World Series Finals, Bahrain Darts Masters, Poland Darts Masters, Belgian Darts Open and Austrian Darts Open tournaments.
He continued his astonishing rise in May by exacting revenge on Humphries to win the Premier League of Darts.
And his stunning exploits at the age of 17 have seen him beat off a star-studded cast of young sports stars to win the prestigious award.
The Warrington wizard said of winning his award: “It just goes to show how well I’ve done this year.
“But not only for myself changed the sport of darts [with] all the other professionals.
“But I have played a big part in it.”
When pressed on the impact he’s had on the sport, Littler added: “I know the amount of academies that have been brought up in different locations and how big the sport has got [now].
“Tickets – selling out Ally Pally within hours. And the Premier League, they sold out quick as well.
