LUKE LITTLER has gone from the "middle of nowhere" to almost reaching the top of the world.

Littler, 17, wiped the floor with Martin Lukeman in the final to pick up the £150,000 winner's cheque and move to No.5 in the world.
"The Nuke' burst on to the scene a year ago and reached the World Championship final on debut, losing to Luke Humphries at Alexandra Palace.
