Luke Littler takes top spot in alternative world rankings, Luke Humphries down in eighth place

The PDC has again published an alternative world ranking. This ranking, unlike the official world ranking, only takes into account the last 200 legs played by each Tour Card holder. However, the number one in this alternative world ranking is by no means a surprising name.

On the official world rankings, Luke Littler is in 20th place after about nine months with the PDC. On this alternative world ranking list, however, he is in top spot. That should come as no surprise, as the 17-year-old English superstar recently won the World Series of Darts Finals and a Players Championship. After his win at the World Series of Darts Finals, he even let slip that he "feels unbeatable". For Littler, the sky seems to be the limit and more tournament victories are expected to follow this year.

Littler averaged 100.82 and 38.72 percent on his doubles during his last 200 legs played. This makes him the only player above 100 average. In second place we find Cameron Menzies. The Scot, who is only 44th in the official world rankings, has been in excellent form lately, which translates into his high position in these alternative world rankings. Menzies averaged 98.76 during his last 200 legs played and 39.38% on his doubles.

The top three is completed by Chris Dobey. 'Hollywood,' currently ranked 13th in the official world rankings, averaged 98.51 and 40.74% on his doubles during his last 200 legs played.

If you're wondering where big names such as Michael van Gerwen and Luke Humphries place in this form ranking, the mighty Dutchman is in 7th, with the world champion and world number one a comparatively lowly 8th place.
