Luke Littler: Rising Star of Premier League Darts 2024

Young Star Dominates Premier League Darts

On a thrilling Thursday night, 17-year-old Luke Littler emerged victorious in Night 14 of the 2024 Premier League Darts campaign. The young English star is making waves in his debut year on the Pro Tour, cementing his status as a rising talent in the sport.

Wayne Mardle, a former Premier League Darts competitor and current Sky Sports analyst, leaves no doubt about his assessment of Littler’s skills. “I do believe Luke’s playing like the best in the world – and he’s getting better. Right now, he has this swagger – just imagine how good he will be in five years,” Mardle stated emphatically.

However, when asked if he feels like the top dog in darts, the modest Littler disagrees. “I don’t know who the best player in the world is right now, but it’s not me,” the 17-year-old responded humbly.

Undeterred, Mardle maintains his praise for the young prodigy. “There’s a definite comfort zone with him now, shushing the audience, having the guts to do it, having the composure to do it and not letting it bother him or put him off. He seems to have come out of his shell – there has been a change in him,” Mardle analyzes.

With four wins in the Premier League and the league phase all but secured with two weeks to go, Littler’s rise in the sport is undeniable. As the future of darts shines brightly, fans eagerly await to see how this young sensation will continue to captivate the world of professional darts.
