LUKE LITTLER dissolved into tears after decorating London’s O2 arena with a nine-dart leg and another slice of history.
He headed into the sunset with £315,000, the best pocket money a 17-year-old phenomenon can win.
In front of a British record 14,000 audience in the PDC era, Luke the Nuke became the youngest winner of a TV major.
Just 141 days after their momentous World Championship final at Alexandra Palace, Littler and Luke Humphries served up another classic.
And Littler garnished his 11-7 triumph in the BetMGM Premier League play-off with a perfect leg.
Lifting the trophy, he turned to the crowd and said: “I just want to say to all the doubters: Hello! I just picked up this and you are not doubting me anymore.”
