LUKE LITTLER has his sights set on the World Darts Championship once again – and he’s in last 16 action tonight!
The teenage sensation added a staggering TEN titles to his ever-bulging cabinet in 2024.
This includes overcoming rival Luke Humphries with the aid of a nine-darter to win the Premier League title.
And then taking glory in November’s thrilling Grand Slam of Darts with a dominant win against Martin Lukeman.
As a result, Littler has risen to fourth on the PDC Order of Merit and won BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year award.
But next on the hit list is a shot at the 2024/25 World Darts Championship – as he looks to go one better than his debut year.
Luke Littler’s last-16 opponent at the World Darts Championship will be English maestro Ryan Joyce – who admits he’s struggled with motivation to improve before falling back in love with the sport.
The thrilling contest will take place on Monday, December 30 and it is scheduled to get underway from 9:45pm GMT.
The Nuke incredibly overcame Ryan Meikle during his first encounter before breaking down in tears live on TV.
And he beat a game Ian White 4-1 in round three to progress to the last 16.
