LUKE LITTLER dreams of joining the wall of fame at London’s iconic O2 Arena – but argues he has already proved the doubters wrong.
In front of a British record 13,800 crowd in the Professional Darts Corporation era, ‘Luke the Nuke’ will scoop £315,000 in prize money if he wins his first major tournament at the BetMGM Premier League play-offs tonight.
A corridor leading to the dressing rooms is covered in framed memorabilia signed by pop stars, boy bands, sportsmen, comedians – and Mrs Brown’s Boys.
And 17-year-old Littler fancies adding his signed purple shirt to the collection if he wins the Premier League at the first attempt.
When the boy wonder signed up to 16 weeks of footslog across seven countries, sceptics warned he risked burnout before he was old enough to vote, drink alcohol, place a bet or watch an X-rated film at the cinema.
