LUKE LITTLER has revealed what he got for Christmas including an odd gift from his mum.
The darts sensation stormed into the Round of 16 of the World Darts Championship on Saturday – days after unwrapping his Christmas gifts.
He beat Ian White 4-1 and likely had his mind focused on the upcoming clash as he rummaged through his stocking on Christmas morning, after booking his place in round three with a win over Ryan Meikle.
Littler received a number of presents on Christmas Day, including a gift he may not need.
Asked about his haul, Littler said: “Oh, some clothes. A new gaming chair. A headset.
“An Xbox gift card from my mum – even though I am sponsored by them! Some new shoes.”
Littler, 17, was in a fiery mood during his win over White.
He admitted he is not always Mr Nice Guy at the oche and he showed an aggressive side as he roared after sealing the fourth set.
The world number four said after the match: “I am not a nice person at times on the board. I don’t think anyone else is.
“But it’s always good to have that a bit of aggression.

“It’s good for myself to show that I can be ruthless. Ian has been around for many years. He played my granddad.
“But for myself, it’s good to be ruthless, especially on that last dart as many people do see.”
Littler even found time to poke fun at himself as he pretended to cry when he greeted his family post-game.
The teen broke down after his win over Meikle and went over to his parents for an emotional hug.
