Luke Littler has added another piece of silverware to his collection with the 15-year-old sensation winning the 2022 JDC World Youth Championship before the session begins this afternoon at the Alexandra Palace.
Littler who sealed the WDF World Masters Boys title last week in Assen joins recent winners such as Jurjen van der Velde who will have a Tour Card next season, Bradly Roes and Rusty-Jake Rodriguez. He claimed a whitewash win over fellow Target Elite 1 prospect Harry Gregory.
In leg one, Littler hit 137 to leave 24 which he pinned first time for a break. Double four to go 2-0 up. 60 checkout using double 20, double 10 for 3-0.
Before sealing the match with a 180 and 30 checkout for 4-0 and 112 checkout to win 5-0. Albeit not able to play Q-School due to turning sixteen just after, 'The Nuke' continues to be a force.

- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
- Still impressive though. Also literally everyone cares about averages that's what makes darts fascinating.medinabello14-11-2024
- BS he won a Euro Tour during this down period something that not many players can say. Dobey, Noppy, DvD, Ross Smith to name just a few.medinabello14-11-2024
- Maybe the supposed top players are burnt out from the endless travelling and tournaments, I just don't think they have the dedication or outright desire to win. I think they are more interested in the money and being popular, just keeping their rankings steady. The only thing that mattered to Phil Taylor was winning, not winning a few games to top up the money pot and seeking the fans attention. Maybe there is too many tournaments now and the enthusiasm is gone. This year especially has seen so many different winners and unexpected draws and line ups.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
