“Happy birthday sweetie – Chris Dobey ribs Luke Littler with hilarious photo to celebrate 19th birthday
PDCThursday, 22 January 2026 at 10:00
Luke Littler has wrapped up a successful trip to the Middle East. “The Nuke” won the inaugural Saudi Arabia Darts Masters by beating Michael van Gerwen 8-5 in the final. A few days earlier, Littler had bowed out in the quarterfinals of the Bahrain Darts Masters, but he is now putting together a new winning run.
At the Bahrain Darts Masters, Littler saw his 21-match winning streak in televised matches end when he lost in the quarterfinals to Gerwyn Price. However, “The Nuke” did not dwell on it for long and returned to winning ways in Saudi Arabia.
A day after his triumph in Riyadh, Littler also celebrated his nineteenth birthday, and fellow pro Chris Dobey took note. “Hollywood” posted a photo on Instagram of a sleeping Littler on the plane, captioned: “Happy birthday sweetie.”
Littler and Dobey can now turn their attention to the first major of the new season. It starts next week in Milton Keynes, where the Winmau World Masters is on the schedule. It is also one of the few majors Littler has never won. Last year, he went out in the quarterfinals after a defeat to eventual finalist Jonny Clayton.

- Maybe he should write a book about it called murder on the dart board, and can branch out to a podcast. He can call that the wrong bed.BandB21-01-2026
- fact is, the majority of people don't agree with you (read i.e. any reddit post on the subject, where the consensus is the likes of mardle and dawson are the best out there). personally i'll miss oatley but i consider most of the others to be dinosaurs with the combined personality of a cardboard box. warriner-little's "THE BULL" gimmick is affected and cringeworthy and he's never had the charisma for a commentary job.colt18-01-2026
- i'm going to assume he said 15 major finals, not 50. in any case, van veen spanked him in the worlds and beat him in the other major final he played, so he absolutely has a case for being better than him right now, even if legacy wise he's still far behind for now.colt18-01-2026
- The headline? Who's made the perfect start? The bloke who won it! Did Mardle write that?! What an innocuous headline!rick6716-01-2026

- The PDC bulldozed ITV into changing their line up just to keep the darts. I mean, just look at that picture above of that clockslacker Mardull..... Webster ticks a certain box I always liked Glenn Durrant the player but all of his interviews were cringe worthy and he is incredibly awkward now. Forget the rest of the waste of spaces. The previous ITV show was absolutely outstanding and fantastic, it didn't need changing. Alan Warriner is right to be incensed with the way he was dropped, again Alan is exceptionally knowledgeable and had that very dry wit and personality. The only worthy commentators from SKY are John Part and Laura Turner. I actually really liked Devon Petersen, who has massive amounts of charisma and character, I think he would make a decent commentator and what about Matthew Edgar, he has an excellent YouTube channel and is very knowledgeable and interesting. The bottom line is I will never watch darts on ITV with this line uprichieburnettrocks15-01-2026
- Not Mardle please. Alan warriner is much more knowledgeable and doesn't say here fishy fishy,and other inane rubbishrick6715-01-2026
- One of my all time favourites. And one of the best darts shirts going (especially the rarely seen blue).BandB14-01-2026
- Don't be daft,he won't do any reality shows! Who'd paint his head and colour his hair?! Honestly,I do like wrighty,I hope he gets his form back soon. Reality shows for sports people do seem to be a downward spiral!rick6713-01-2026
