"I never really say I’m the best in the world": Luke Littler remains modest as hunt for Premier League Darts history hits Berlin
PDC
Luke Littler has a chance to make history in Premier League Darts on Thursday night in Berlin. The 18-year-old Englishman, who currently leads the rankings, wants to continue his dominant form in the German capital and set a new record.
The Uber Arena is the setting for the ninth round of play in the league, where Littler is looking to consolidate his lead with a comfortable eight-point lead. Last week at Newcastle, he won his fourth weekly title of the season, equaling a record. Now he is eager to become the first player ever to win five weekly titles in one season. He still has eight rounds of play to do so.
Tonight games will be played at the Uber Arena, which in recent years has been known as the Mercedes-Benz Arena. This playing venue is the newest in the list of playing cities where the Premier League Darts visits. Only since 2018 has Berlin been part of the program. It forms part of two foreign visits with Rotterdam also a continual part of the calendar.
Littler will hope to continue his march towards The O2 with victory in the German capital on Thursday evening.

“I never really say I’m the best in the world, but I am performing at a really good level at the moment,” admitted the teenage phenom.
“I'm playing too well for players not to be thinking about playing me, rather than just playing the board.
"I'm sitting comfortably at the top of the table now, so hopefully I should be even more settled going into the next few weeks.
“I want to finish top of the table again, I want to go back-to-back, but my main goal now is to get my fifth nightly win in Berlin.”

- I agree. There needs to be a points system and preferably just a rolling one year. World Championship should earn the most points though it can be argued that the current qualification system does see a fair few players qualify from regional country qualifiers who would struggle to hold down a place on the Pro Tour. If prize money won is going to remain as the determining factor for ranking then the World Championship should just consist of the 128 Tour Card Holders. Another option would be to take the World Championship out of the rankings and have it as the stand alone pinnacle that you qualify for by winning certain tournaments or your ranking position, sort of like a GSOD+.Mysstree05-04-2025
- The Premier league has literally become a pantomime with a hero and villain, all thats needed is an older dart player in drag to play the joke old woman / queen and a younger woman to play the male hero. Barry is probably working on it now.Mysstree04-04-2025

- The next prodigy (prodigies) are just round the corner. Wonder if it gets to the stage of 180 after 180 being hit leg after leg whether there will be a modification to the equipment such as reduced doubles and trebles, reduce the size of the board or length of the oche?Mysstree25-03-2025
- obviously littler has the potential to surpass everybody simply because nobody has been this good at this age before, but people who think he would be any kind of favourite right now against prime taylor in a big final have short memories. it's obvious that prime taylor wouldn't win as many world titles if he was playing today, but there's also good reason to believe he'd be winning more than anybody else. hell, his statistical profile still stands alone in darts history and he might statistically be even better if he was playing today with better equipment, larger beds, more competition therefore more motivation, etc.colt24-03-2025
- Bad idea. Every other Major ranking title prize funds added together do not come to £1 million. Add £500k to the prize pot and spread it out evenly over the draw.Mysstree24-03-2025
