Luke Littler smashed his own record average in a mind blowing display on Sunday afternoon at the Czech Darts Open. 'The Nuke' had already beaten Nathan Aspinall 6-1 on Saturday night with an average of 110.43, but Littler proved in the third round that he could do even better.

The 17-year-old took off like a train and took a 2-0 lead with two 12-darters. A 13-darter then made it 3-0, before Heta got on the scoreboard with a 14-darter.

With a 14-darter and an 11-darter, Littler then extended his lead to 5-1. Heta kept in the match with a 12-darter and a 14-darter, but still had to bow out. Littler ended the match in phenomenal fashion with a 10-darter, bringing the average vs. Littler to 116.51.
