Tonight, 16-year-old, Luke Littler, aims to make history in the final of the PDC World Darts Championship, and we have all the details on how to watch the action.
As teenagers, most of us were out playing on the streets or smashing FIFA on our PlayStations — not playing at the pinnacle of world sport. The story of Littler is nothing short of sensational — a youngster from Warrington comes out of nowhere and dominates the best darts players on the planet in a run that has captured the imagination of the public. And tonight, he has the opportunity to put the icing on the cake and win the whole thing.
Luke Littler has made darting history
With a love of ham and cheese omelettes and donner kebabs, the youngster’s likeable personality has resonated with fans around the globe, with those previously not interested in darts gathering around their TV screens in the hope that his fairytale run reaches its desired conclusion.
In upset victories that no one would’ve thought possible at the start of the competition, Littler has dispatched of darting royalty in the form of Raymond van Barneveld and obliterated Rob Cross, in a sublime semi-final performance that will live long in the memory. Blessed with nerves of steel, the Northern lad, bagged a 101.93 average in his penultimate match, exhibiting all the bottle necessary to go all the way.
However, he’ll have to overcome a more than formidable opponent when he steps out onto the oche tonight. Since his rise to fame, Luke Humphries has terrorised the darting world. This year alone, the World Number 1 has won the Grand Slam, the Grand Prix and the Players Championship. Therefore, it goes without saying that Littler is up against it. But having overcome the odds on so many occasions, it would take a fool to write him off. So, without further ado, here’s how you can watch the final.
