LUKE LITTLER’S Operation Desert Storm was a major success – and now the birthday boy wants to cram his diary with as many tests as possible.

And after a perfect nine-darter against Nathan Aspinall, followed by a “big fish” 170 checkout against Gerwyn Price and a stunning 8-5 win against three-times world champion Michael van Gerwen in the final, he said: “I can’t wait to play in everything.”
