Michael Smith through to final of Premier League Night Six after victory over Luke Littler
PDCThursday, 07 March 2024 at 23:17
Michael Smith reached the final of night six in Premier League Darts after seeing off Luke Littler 6-3. The teenager was uncharacteristically profligate on the outer ring, with just a 20% success rate for the World Championship finalist.
Smith raced into a 3-0 lead that included an exhibition style 120 after hitting a 60 then accidentally firing a dart into the tops bed before eventually mopping up double 10. Littler did well to reduce the arrears to just one with back to back legs, but then missed two darts to level things up. Smith hit D10 to increase his lead back to two.
The crucial moment came in leg seven when 'The Nuke' had a chance to stop Smith from going within one of victory, but agonisingly missed the bull on a 170. It was always going to be an uphill task after that, but Littler can still be pleased with his night's work as he continues to cement a spot in the top four on 11 points.

- He looks very healthy. I doubt he can run or anything. You need carbs for that. Carbs fuel your brain also. It is the preferred energy source for the brain. Carbs get broken down into glycogen fuel for your muscles. As a rider I totally need carbs. However for a dart player who doesn't need a brain or be fit this diet is perfect.medinabello23-12-2024

- Once again Madhouse bottles it just like last year v Graf. Not sure why he's been brilliant all year. Definite similarities between this year and last though. He has to sort it out.medinabello23-12-2024
