LUKE LITTLER has revealed the “once-in-a-lifetime trip” he will make following the Premier League Darts final.
The Nuke has the chance to land a cool £275,000 prize if he wins his first major tonight at the O2 Arena in London, which would eclipse his £200,000 pay day from the World Championships.
The last time Littler played darts in London his life change forever as he burst on to the scene at the World Championships.
The teen sensation made it all the way to the final before falling at the final hurdle to World No1 Luke Humphries.
And tonight he may face off against Humphries once again if the pair beat their respective semi-final opponents – Michael Smith and Michael van Gerwen – to make it to the final.
Fortunately, the 17-year-old is in line to take home a tidy prize regardless of how he does tonight.
The runner-up will take home £125,000, while a losing semi-finalist will rake in £85,000.
The last time he took a major prize pot home Littler spent the winnings on FIFA points.
But since then he has also booked his family in for a family holiday to Disney World in Orlando Florida.
He told the Evening Standard: “I’m playing in New York next week, which looked great last year.
LUKE LITTLER has taken the darts world by storm since exploding onto the scene at the PDC World Championship.
The Nuke reached the final on his Ally Pally debut at just 16 years of age – smashing records along the way.
He has since joined Jude Bellingham on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list.
And the teenage titan even had to snub an invite from the WWE.
The Sun exclusively revealed that Littler is plotting to create a fitness empire.
He is also cashing in away from the Oche thanks to an Instagram side hustle.
And he’s even the face of a brand new cereal.

“I saw the guys taking the helicopter ride and I’ll definitely get my chance to see some sites.
“And then it’s off to Orlando. We’re going to Disney and plan to do all the rides.
“My whole family loves all the rollercoasters. It’s one of those once-in-a-lifetime trips.”
Winning the grand prize tonight would take Littler past £600,000 in earnings for his debut season, with Prem victories in Manchester, Liverpool, Belfast and Aberdeen seeing him pocket an extra £40,000 that also saw him top the table.
Littler said: “They said I wasn’t ready. Look how I’ve done. But there’s still one big night to go. To win it would be a big message to those doubting me.”
On his prize money winnings, he added: “It’s mad, isn’t it? It’s just sort of happened.
“But I don’t think about the money to be won. I know it’s there, but I’ve got a semi-final to prepare for and then a final, hopefully.”
Littler has superstitiously chosen to not touch the Premier League Darts trophy until winning it, but admitted he is more than happy to be playing in front of a sold out arena.
He said: “I’ve enjoyed playing in front of the crowds and trying to perform my best and my form’s been good.
“I’m just happy being part of the PDC. I just take it all in my stride.”
