Super talent Luke Littler has reached the final of the World Darts Championship and is on the eve of the big hit. The 16-year-old Englishman continued his sensational winning streak with a 6-2 victory in the semi-finals against his compatriot and former champion Rob Cross and was crowned the youngest world champion in history on Wednesday evening.
In the final, the teenager will face Luke Humphries or Scott Williams (both England), who will meet in the second semi-final late on Tuesday evening. Littler, who was celebrated in the English media as a ‘prodigy’, once again delivered a stunningly calm top performance in an exciting duel at eye level, just like in the previous rounds.
With his strong performances and youthful character, ‘The Nuke’ has quickly become a crowd favorite at Alexandra Palace. For Cross, who the day before was the first player to overturn a 0-4 deficit in the quarter-finals against Chris Dobey in the ‘Ally Pally’, the dream of a second title after 2018 has fallen apart.
The youngest world title holder of the Professional Darts Corporation (PDC) is Michael van Gerwen, who surprisingly failed against Williams in the quarter-finals on New Year’s Day. The Dutchman first triumphed in London in 2014 at the age of 24. (AFP/mou)
