Qualifying for the PDC World Championships at the age of 16 was itself an accomplishment, but for British darts phenom @LukeTheNuke180, it was only the beginning. #ForbesUnder30 Europe: Sports & Games trib.al/Gw9TOE3
Forbes, best known for the lists of companies, entrepreneurs and wealthy people it compiles each year, has included Luke Littler in their prestigious "30 under 30," list for Europe which highlights the most influential sports and games people under the age of 30.
Littler has been included in the Forbes Under 30 Europe Class of 2024 along with notable names like English footballers Jude Bellingham and Alessia Russo, F1 driver Lando Norris and Real Madrid winger Vinicius Jr. The 17-year-old Englishman has become truly world famous in a short time after his final place at the last World Darts Championship.
Since then, he made his full breakthrough within the PDC with final wins at the Bahrain Darts Masters and the Belgian Darts Open. In the Premier League Darts, he is in first place after ten nights of play.
Littler is also a frequent guest on various TV shows in Britain. For example, he was recently featured on "The Jonathan Ross Show" and last month was part of "Comic Relief," a show for charity.
'The Nuke' is also extremely popular on social media, with some 1.3 million fans, a following that continues to grow daily.

- I might actually enter this next year,for £5 and an egg cup! It's a disgrace considering the previous champions. I won't be watching,and I doubt many others will either. Taylor, Barney, Burnett, Hankey, Wolfie,you'd win this with your eyes closedrick6705-11-2024
- Shame that Beau has got Noppert first, he is less likely to fold, Schindler or Menzies may well of. Still think she can win the group, even if not can still qualify for the knockout stages.Mysstree05-11-2024
- I agree with the other posts here. Cameron Menzies did absolutely nothing wrong... he showed some passion-being a human - which is good to see. The last thing we want is grey/woke robot players who are far too afraid to show any emotions whatsoever. Woke is killing most sports and is having far-reaching consequences - in general.MrYnyslas197105-11-2024
- I don't actually see the problem,he was insulting only to himself,as a reaction to his victory. I don't think anyone else was affected,so what's the issue?rick6704-11-2024
