Luke Littler comes up with witty response to fan expressing delight that 'The Nuke' is missing from Nordic Darts Masters

Luke Littler is missing from this weekend's Nordic Darts Masters in the Danish capital of Copenhagen. Danish darts fans will no doubt be saddened not to be able to see the teenage sensation in action live, but on Facebook, one darts fan was happy about the absence of The Nuke.
The PDC on Tuesday posted the playing schedule for the opening day of the Nordic Darts Masters. So, to the luck of a fan named Lee Davis, Littler was not on it. ''Another tournament I can enjoy without a certain person being mentioned all the time!'' he wrote with several laughing emojis. That comment also came under the eyes of Littler himself, who responded with a brilliantly witty comment. ''Enjoy it while u can,'' was Littler's warning to the darts fan who was happy that the 17-year-old Englishman will not be seen in Copenhagen.
Littler also has a nice reason to be missing from the Nordic Darts Masters. That is because he prefers a holiday in Orlando with his family. The reigning youth world champion will go there for a week before he returns to darting action as makes his appearance at the Poland Darts Masters next week.
In addition to Littler, Michael van Gerwen is also not competing in the World Series tournament in Denmark. Van Gerwen, like Littler, stayed in the United States after the US Darts Masters, but left in a westerly direction. He is staying in Las Vegas during the Nordic Darts Masters. Van Gerwen does compete in the tournament in Poland next week as usual.
At the US Darts Masters over the last weekend, Littler was forced to settle for a semi-final spot. The recent Premier League Darts winner came up just short in a thrilling battle with Gerwyn Price at the iconic Madison Square Garden in New York City.

- Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
- I dont like individuals or crowds trying to put any player off when they are trying to check out, how anyone can think its okay for the crowd to whistle or shout as someone is throwing for a double is beyond me but it does seem to have become part and parcel of the modern game. I no longer play now, darts is as good as dead at a local level round my way but when i did play many years ago, no matter how intense the rivalry you never shouted out or whistled when an opponent from the other team was throwing for a double.Mysstree17-11-2024
- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.
UndartedWaters16-11-2024 - So, you don't like Littler, then? I was cheering him on, being a fellow Englishman. Honestly, some of us get far too offended nowadays. If you want to see crowd passion... watch a match when German and Dutch players face off... that can be just as bad if not worse for crowd noises. It happens, I have watched and heard Littler being jeered - Dirk van Duijvenbode in Holland, January this year. Where was your outrage then? Yes, I can clearly see what is going on here.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
