Luke Littler (born 21 January 2007) is an English professional darts player who competes in Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) events, where he is ranked world No. 1. Nicknamed "the Nuke", Littler has won two PDC World Championships, which he won in 2025 and 2026, and remains the youngest world champion in darts history (17 years, 347 days). He has won 10 PDC major titles—ranked fourth all-time—and a total of 22 PDC titles.
Born and raised in Warrington, Littler began playing darts at 18 months old and established himself on the World Darts Federation (WDF) circuit in 2022. After winning the 2023 PDC World Youth Championship and five PDC Development Tour titles, Littler made his PDC World Championship debut in 2024, aged 16; as a 66/1 outsider, he reached the final and was defeated by Luke Humphries. That year, he won three PDC major titles, including the Premier League. He defeated Michael van Gerwen to claim his maiden World Championship in 2025, when he won six majors, completed the PDC Triple Crown with victory at the World Matchplay, and became the youngest world No. 1 at the Grand Slam. He retained his title in 2026 after defeating Gian van Veen, becoming the eighth player to win successive world titles in darts and the fourth in the PDC.
Named BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year in 2024, his rise to prominence at age 16 led to an increased public interest in darts, a phenomenon dubbed "Littlermania" or the "Littler effect". He was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2025 Birthday Honours and was named an honorary citizen of Warrington.
Early life
Luke Littler was born on 21 January 2007 at Warrington Hospital in Warrington, Cheshire,[5][6][7][a] the son of candle shop employee Lisa Littler and taxi driver Anthony Buckley.[11][12] He has two brothers and one sister.[13] He spent the first six years of his life in nearby Runcorn before moving back to Warrington,[14][15] where he attended Padgate Academy.[16] During childhood, he underwent eye surgery to fix his strabismus.[17]
Littler began playing darts when he was 18 months old, after his father bought him a magnetic dart board from a pound shop.[18] He has claims to have scored his first 180 at the age of six and a nine-dart finish at the age of 13.[19] When he was 10, he joined the St Helens Darts Academy and began playing in under-21 leagues.[20]
Career
Early career
In November 2021, Littler won his first seniors title at the Irish Open defeating Barry Copeland 6–2 in legs. This qualified Littler for the 2022 WDF World Darts Championship, at the age of 14.[21] At the end of November, during the JDC MVG Masters tournament, he hit a nine-dart finish.[22][23]
Littler won the JDC Super 16 in Milton Keynes at the end of January 2022, beating Eleanor Cairns in the final.[24] In March 2022, he won the youth competition at the Isle Of Man Open and advanced to the finals of the Isle of Man Classic.[25] At the 2022 WDF World Darts Championship, Littler started as a seeded player from the second round and won his first match against Ben Hazel 3–2 in sets, becoming the youngest player to win a match at a senior darts world championship.[26][27][28] He was then beaten 3–0 in sets by Richard Veenstra, who set a record three-dart average for a World Championship match at the Lakeside.[29]
Littler won the JDC World Darts Championship in London at the end of December 2022, beating Harry Gregory 5–0 in legs.[30]
2023: World Youth champion
Littler continued to play on the World Darts Federation circuit in 2023. He won the British Classic, whitewashing Carl Wilkinson 5–0 in the final.[31] On the same weekend, he also won the British Open, defeating Peter Jacques 5–2 in the final.[32][33]
Littler made his debut at a PDC major event at the 2023 UK Open, qualifying for the tournament via an amateur qualifying event organised by Rileys.[34] He reached the fourth round alongside fellow Rileys qualifier Thomas Banks, where he lost to eventual semi-finalist Adam Gawlas 10–8.[35][36]
Also in 2023, Littler won the third and fourth seasons of the MODUS Super Series.[37][38][39]
Littler competed in the 2023 PDC Development Tour series. He won five events and finished second on the 2023 Development Tour Order of Merit behind Gian van Veen.[40][41]
On 26 November, Littler beat Gian van Veen 6–4 in the 2023 PDC World Youth Championship final.[42][41] The next month, he retained his JDC World Darts Championship title, defeating Álmos Kovács 5–3 in the final.[43]
2024: Breakthrough year
Littler made his first PDC World Championship appearance at the 2024 World Championship, qualifying as a result of his placement on the 2023 PDC Development Tour Order of Merit.[44] He started off as an outsider with 66/1 odds.[45] Littler reached the final by defeating former world champion Rob Cross 6–2 in the semi-finals.[46] At 16 years and 347 days old, this made him the youngest player to reach the PDC World Championship final, beating the record previously held by 2008 finalist Kirk Shepherd.[47] Littler faced Luke Humphries in the final on 3 January 2024, taking a 4–2 lead before eventually losing to Humphries 7–4.[48][49] He earned £200,000 in prize money for his runner-up finish and entered the world's top 32 on the PDC Order of Merit, having started the tournament as the world number 164.[8] Off the back of his World Championship run, it was announced that Littler would take part in the PDC's 2024 World Series of Darts and 2024 Premier League Darts.[50][51]
Littler made his World Series debut at the Bahrain Darts Masters.[52] He hit his first televised nine-dart finish in his quarter-final win against Nathan Aspinall, becoming the youngest player to do so.[53][54] He won 8–5 against Michael van Gerwen in the final to capture his first PDC senior title.[55] Competing in the Premier League for the first time, he ended the league phase with four nightly wins to top the table.[56][57] Littler was matched up against fourth-placed Michael Smith in the semi-finals of the play-offs,[57] winning 10–5 to progress to the Premier League final. After hitting a nine-darter in the 11th leg of the match, he defeated Luke Humphries 11–7 to win his first major title, becoming the youngest player to win a PDC major tournament.[58][59]
As he had gained a PDC Tour Card, Littler played in his first Players Championship series, winning three titles.[60][61][62] Littler also won two titles on the European Tour, hitting a nine-dart finish in his victory at the Belgian Darts Open before adding the Austrian Darts Open title.[63][64] He won his second World Series title at the Poland Darts Masters by beating Rob Cross 8–3 in the final,[65] before clinching the World Series Finals in September, defeating Michael Smith 11–4 in the final.[66] In November, he defeated Martin Lukeman 16–3 in the Grand Slam of Darts final to secure his first ranking major title and enter the top five in the world on the PDC Order of Merit.[67] Later that month, he faced Luke Humphries in the pair's third major final of the year at the Players Championship Finals, with Littler losing 11–7.[68][69]
2025: World champion and world number one

Littler entered the second round of the 2025 World Championship as the fourth seed,[70] where he defeated Ryan Meikle 3–1 in sets. He broke the record for the highest set average in a World Championship match by averaging 140.91 in the fourth and final set, missing double 12 for a nine-darter in the second leg of the set.[71][72] Littler reached the final by defeating Meikle, Ian White, Ryan Joyce, Nathan Aspinall and Stephen Bunting.[73] In the final on 3 January 2025, he defeated three-time world champion Michael van Gerwen 7–3 in sets. Aged 17 years and 347 days,[74] Littler became the youngest world champion in darts history, breaking Jelle Klaasen's record from when he won the 2006 BDO World Championship at age 21.[75] He was also seven years younger than Van Gerwen when he won his first world title in 2014 at age 24.[73][76] Littler's win saw him earn the £500,000 top prize and surpass Van Gerwen on the PDC Order of Merit to become the world number two, behind Luke Humphries.[77]
In March, Littler won the UK Open for the first time, defeating James Wade 11–2 in the final.[78] He retained his Belgian Darts Open title to win his third European Tour title.[79] On night seven of the 2025 Premier League, Littler hit his third televised nine-dart finish in the final against Michael van Gerwen before winning the match 6–4.[80] He became the first player to record six nightly wins in a single Premier League season after his victory on night 16 and finished the league stage on 45 points – the highest amount of points earned in a Premier League season.[81] On Finals Night on 29 May, he defeated Gerwyn Price 10–7 in the semi-finals and progressed to the final where he played Luke Humphries in a rematch of the 2024 final. However, Littler was unable to defend his title as he lost 11–8 to Humphries.[82]
At the World Matchplay, Littler hit a nine-dart finish in his semi-final match against Josh Rock.[83] In a repeat of their UK Open meeting, Littler defeated James Wade 18–13 in the final to win the World Matchplay for the first time. He also became the fifth player to complete the so-called PDC Triple Crown by winning the World Matchplay, the World Championship and the Premier League.[84] He followed this victory by winning back-to-back World Series titles in Australia and New Zealand,[85][86] as well as a second European Tour title of the year at the Flanders Darts Trophy.[87] At the World Grand Prix, Littler won his seventh PDC major title by defeating Luke Humphries 6–1 in the final.[88] He won his sole Players Championship title of the year at Players Championship 32, beating Dennie Olde Kalter 8–2 in the final.[89]
In November, Littler retained the Grand Slam by defeating Luke Humphries 16–11 in the final. By reaching the final of the tournament, Littler overtook Humphries on the PDC Order of Merit and became the new world number one, the youngest player to achieve the feat.[90] He won his sixth major title of the year at the Players Championship Finals with an 11–8 win against Nathan Aspinall.[91]
2026: Back to back World Champion
At the 2026 World Championship, Littler won his first three matches without losing a set.[92] Following a 4–2 victory against Rob Cross in the fourth round,[93] he defeated Krzysztof Ratajski 5–0 and Ryan Searle 6–1 to reach his third consecutive World Championship final.[94][95] In the final, Littler beat Gian van Veen 7–1 to win two consecutive PDC World Championship titles.
Playing style
Littler has been noted for his heavy scoring during matches, frequently hitting the maximum score of 180.[96] Using darts manufactured by Target with characteristically long 45mm points,[97] Littler plays at a quick pace[96] and is known for his efficiency in checking out on the double 10 segment.[98][99][100]
In popular culture
Impact on darts
"Darts has gone crazy. You wouldn't believe the difference since young Luke came along."
Following Littler's unexpected run to the final at the 2024 PDC World Championship, an unprecedented number of new fans began to both play and watch darts,[102][103][104][105] and a record high of 3.7 million viewers watched the 2024 world final.[106][107] The president of the Professional Darts Corporation, Barry Hearn, attributed this phenomenon to Littler's success and described it as "Littlermania",[108] while others have dubbed it the "[Luke] Littler effect".[109][110][111]
Littler was named BBC Young Sports Personality of the Year in 2024, becoming the first darts player to receive the award.[112] He also finished as runner-up for BBC Sports Personality of the Year behind 2024 Summer Olympics gold medalist Keely Hodgkinson.[113] Google revealed that he was the United Kingdom's most searched athlete in 2024, while also placing third in the most searched people category ahead of UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and King Charles III.[114][115] In June 2025, Littler was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2025 Birthday Honours for services to darts.[116][117]
Media appearances

In January 2024, Littler revealed on BBC Radio 1 that he was inspired to choose "Greenlight" by Pitbull featuring Flo Rida and LunchMoney Lewis as his walk-on song after he and his father attended the 2017 WWE event WrestleMania 33, which featured "Greenlight" as its theme song.[118] WWE later invited Littler to their upcoming house show at the O2 Arena in April, which he accepted,[119] and John Cena posted an uncaptioned picture of Littler on his Instagram account after Littler admitted to being a fan.[120][121] Later that year, he was given a tour of WWE's headquarters Titan Towers by Cody Rhodes.[122]
In March 2024, he made an appearance on the 232nd episode of The Jonathan Ross Show alongside Rob Beckett, Millie Bobby Brown, Liam Gallagher, Raye, and John Squire.[123] He was involved in a darts challenge where he played against Beckett, Brown, and Raye in a three-on-one scoring challenge.[124] The three scored a total of 83, while Littler hit a score of 140.[125] That same month, he made an appearance on Fantasy Football League alongside Stuart Broad.[126][127] He has appeared in the darts-themed game show Bullseye on two occasions.[128][129]
Following his 2025 World Championship win, Littler paraded his trophy at Old Trafford during half-time of Manchester United's match against Brighton & Hove Albion on 19 January 2025.[130] The Warrington Wolves honoured Littler by renaming their stadium, the Halliwell Jones Stadium, to the Luke Littler Stadium for one night only on 21 February 2025, the date of their opening home match of the 2025 Super League season against the Catalans Dragons.[131]
Sponsorships and management
In February 2024, Littler signed a deal with fashion brand BoohooMAN to allow him to help promote the Motor Neurone Disease Association,[132] and signed a multi-year professional contract with darts manufacturer Target Darts.[133] He has also been sponsored by Xbox and KP Nuts.[134][135]
Littler was previously part of the ZXF Sports Management stable run by Martin Foulds, who he signed with at the age of 13 in 2020. In October 2025, he announced that he had parted ways with ZXF Sports,[136][137] soon agreeing to a management deal with Target Darts.[138][139]
Personal life
Littler is a supporter of football club Manchester United and rugby league club the Warrington Wolves.[140] Following his victory over Raymond van Barneveld in the last 16 of the 2024 World Championship, footballer James Maddison invited him to watch Tottenham Hotspur play AFC Bournemouth in a Premier League match at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.[141][142]
Littler is friends with Twitch streamer and YouTuber Morgan Burtwistle, better known as Angryginge. Littler has been seen in many livestreams and videos on Burtwistle's channel, where he plays football and EA Sports FC.[143] On 7 February 2025, Littler played Burtwistle on livestream in a game of darts, where he won against Burtwistle, 3–2.[144]
In February 2025, Littler was made an honorary citizen of his hometown Warrington by Warrington Borough Council at a ceremony at the Parr Hall to recognise his contribution to the borough and his "outstanding achievements" in the sport of darts. Littler described the accolade as "a real honour".[145]
