"It's an incredible feeling and I can't wait to get back up on the stage. I've obviously been on the Milton Keynes stage before so I've got a bit of stage experience but I think the people behind me have really helped me," said Littler to Tungsten Tales.

"I had the Isle of Man two weeks ago and that was good practice. Won the youth three times in a row, lost a Classic final to James Hurrell and did some set practice with Nathan Aspinall to get me ready because I've never really played sets."

"The most I've played is first to six but I think the breaks really help you."
