He was relatively unknown just a few weeks ago, but Luke Littler is now on the verge of winning a historic title at the World Darts Championship. The 16-year-old has become a global star since making his tournament debut this year, with the teenage sensation continuing to defy the odds by beating opponents with decades’ more experience. He now faces fellow Englishman Luke Humphries in Wednesday’s final, where he has the chance to become the youngest player to ever win the title. “I’ve got no words,” Littler told reporters after beating former world champion Rob Cross in the semifinals on Tuesday. “I can’t even imagine lifting that trophy yet though. I’ve just got to stay focused, relax and be Luke Littler.” His performances at this year’s competition have catapulted Litter into a different stratosphere, where he’s had to quickly learn to deal with the pressure that comes with being the man of the moment.
