Luke Littler, the Premier League Darts champion, achieved this feat on debut at the age of 17, making it quite a remarkable story. However, he faces stiff competition from three opponents as he competes in the Premier League’s final four alongside Michael van Gerwen, Luke Humphries and Michael Smith at The O2 in London.
Littler gained attention with an impressive World Championship run where he finished as the runner-up to Luke Humphries, followed by victories at the Bahrain Masters, Belgian Open and Austrian Open. Despite his remarkable achievements, the teenager remains focused on the present, emphasizing his enjoyment of playing in front of crowds and his eagerness for upcoming competitions.
Michael Smith, one of Littler’s opponents has been vocal about the positive impact Littler has had on the sport of darts, acknowledging the increasing prominence and growth it has seen, partly due to Littler’s success. Smith and the other players including Van Gerwen and Humphries, are gearing up for intense competition with each aiming to seize the Premier League title.
Luke Humphries, fueled by his World Championship success and eager for further triumphs is preparing to face Van Gerwen in what promises to be a thrilling encounter. Despite Van Gerwen’s previous dominance in the Premier League, he acknowledges the tough competition and the pressure of defending his title against formidable opponents.
