Gary Anderson came up just short on Sunday afternoon against teenage sensation Luke Littler in the semifinals of the 2024 Grand Slam of Darts. The 53-year-old Scot gave his all, but eventually lost to the 17-year-old prodigy 16-15 after a deciding leg.
Earlier in the match, Anderson was still leading 13-9. The Flying Scotsman also held a 14-12 lead. In the 27th leg, the two-time world champion produced a special highlight.
While Littler was waiting on double 10, Anderson tried to add to the pressure from 165. That worked wonderfully, hitting bullseye three times. Watch Anderson's feat in the video below.

Outrageous stuff from Gary Anderson!
The Scot hits three successive bulls to pile the pressure on Littler, but the 17-year-old stands up to the pressure!

- Am not outraged and as said above i dont like anyone from any country doing it to anyone from any country. Whoever is going for a double should have best of order.Mysstree17-11-2024
- Say what? It happens in other countries; Littler in January - this year (Holland), go and watch the evidence on YouTube. If it is going to be done to English players, then we are more than entitled to dish the same back when players face off in England. When it happened to Littler in Holland in January... where was your outrage then? ABE attitude.MrYnyslas197117-11-2024
- I dont like individuals or crowds trying to put any player off when they are trying to check out, how anyone can think its okay for the crowd to whistle or shout as someone is throwing for a double is beyond me but it does seem to have become part and parcel of the modern game. I no longer play now, darts is as good as dead at a local level round my way but when i did play many years ago, no matter how intense the rivalry you never shouted out or whistled when an opponent from the other team was throwing for a double.Mysstree17-11-2024
- The pundits glossing over the other factor at play in that match. They appear to be somewhat constrained in what they can say publicly.
UndartedWaters16-11-2024 - So, you don't like Littler, then? I was cheering him on, being a fellow Englishman. Honestly, some of us get far too offended nowadays. If you want to see crowd passion... watch a match when German and Dutch players face off... that can be just as bad if not worse for crowd noises. It happens, I have watched and heard Littler being jeered - Dirk van Duijvenbode in Holland, January this year. Where was your outrage then? Yes, I can clearly see what is going on here.MrYnyslas197116-11-2024
