After reaching a final and Quarter-Final so far in his debut weekend on the PDC
Development Tour,
Luke Littler has firmly put the tour on notice with his maiden title in only his third event.
Littler who is seen by many as the next darting prodigy saw off Nathan Girvan, Riley Rees-Tucker, Oliver King and finally Jurjen van der Velde to seal Event Three and the 16-year-old is firmly living up to his promise so far.
The PDC Development Tour circuit consists of 24 tournaments. At each Development Tour tournament, there is a prize pool of £15,000 to be distributed.
With the prize money, a ranking is established. At the end of the season, the numbers one and two receive an invitation to the World Darts Championship, plus a Tour Card for 2024 and 2025.
