Luke Littler is getting enormous attention from the media and also from supporters these days. But fellow Premier League star,
Rob Cross sees no reason to be jealous of the 17-year-old.
Littler stunned the darts world by reaching the final of the World Darts Championship and then winning the Bahrain Darts Masters. "Every hurdle that he [Littler] comes across at the minute, he's got the answers for. I think he's fantastic, I really do," says Cross to the Daily Express. "Has darts ever had that much reach before and after the World Championship before? He's got a million followers on Instagram and he's done it in 10 minutes."
"It's absolutely amazing," Cross continued. "Not forgetting that there's no need to be jealous of this boy for what he's achieving because every one of us dart players is going to benefit from it."
Consequently, Cross sees only positives to Littler's popularity. "More money goes into the game, there's more injection of prize money and everyone will step up," 'Voltage' concludes.
