What we know about Luke Littler
Who is Luke Littler?
Luke Littler, 17, is the youngest-ever finalist at Alexandra Palace and currently ranks fourth globally in darts. Dubbed "The Nuke," Runcorn-born Littler has gained acclaim for his high-scoring prowess, nerve under pressure, and rapid rise in the PDC circuit. In 2024, he defeated Ryan Joyce 4-3 in a gripping final set to secure a quarter-finals spot. Littler’s consistency at the oche and precision in checkouts have made him a huge box office draw. With his first World Championship title within reach, the prodigy aims to cement his status as a generational talent, embodying composure and ambition beyond his years in darts history. While he admits to having few friends on the tour (there is reportedly a certain amount of jealousy surrounding his meteoric rise), Littler is a firm fan favorite and currently the 4/5 favorite to win the 2025 PDC World Darts Championship. Will we see another nine-darter from him tonight? Strap in folks, for more historic arrows from Luke Littler.
