Luke Littler runs rampant to join Peter Wright in German Darts Championship 2024 final

Peter Wright now knows who he will face in the final of the 2024 German Darts Championship, Luke Littler. The Nuke ran rampant in the semifinals against Daryl Gurney to reach the final.

After Littler missed numerous darts at double in the opener, the first two legs of the contest were shared, Littler sparked into life in leg with a stunning 141 checkout to nudge ahead for the first time in the match.

From there, the Littler train was really firing on all cylinders. With Gurney unable to answer the rampant teenager, Littler romped the next four legs without reply to get one away from the win at 6-1. Gurney showed signs of life in leg 8 however, eventually stopping the rot despite numerous missed darts at double.

Sadly for the Northern Irishman however, this was not the start of an incredible comeback as Littler took the ninth leg in 12 darts to seal a 7-2 win, averaging just under 108 with eight maximums and high checkout of 141.

As mentioned, later this evening. Littler will take on Peter Wright in the final, with the 2024 German Darts Championship on the line.
