He said ‘ You don’t doubt me anymore’

The Luke’s match-up was the first time two debutants had made the final and was a repeat of the world championships at Ally Pally.

And while Cool Hand won out that time, five months down the line it was 17-year-old Littler who came out on top and hit a nine-darter to boot.

Some had questioned whether he was ready to step into Premier League Darts so early in his career.

But throughout the 16-night series he won four nights and top the table before his overall triumph in the final.

Speaking after the game, Littler took the chance to call out his naysayers.

He celebrated with his family and wiped away the tears before saying: “For all the doubters, hello! I have just picked up this, you don’t doubt me anymore!

“It’s so good to win in front of my girlfriend, manager and family. I don’t know what to do now!

“I came off for the break. I went to the toilet and came back on. I thought, right, we are on until the end. I needed the toilet after the two legs.

Inside Littler’s massive rise

LUKE LITTLER has taken the darts world by storm since exploding onto the scene at the PDC World Championship.

The Nuke reached the final on his Ally Pally debut at just 16 years of age – smashing records along the way.

He has since joined Jude Bellingham on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list.

And the teenage titan even had to snub an invite from the WWE.

The Sun exclusively revealed that Littler is plotting to create a fitness empire.

He is also cashing in away from the Oche thanks to an Instagram side hustle.

And he’s even the face of a brand new cereal.

“All of us players love a break. We come back on and do what we have to do.

“I practised hard today. I was dead focused. I didn’t want to blink. I am a major winner now.”

Meanwhile, beaten finalist Humphries said: “I tried to stick in there.

“There was a massive breeze all night to deal with. Credit to Luke, he handled it well.

“He played much better. He is a fantastic player. Me and Luke are the two greatest players in the world.

“I love playing him. We will have a lot of battles in the future. He deserved it throughout the season.”

Before the O2 showdown, Littler had won six of his previous eight meetings with Humphries.

Littler has already revealed he will be heading to the United States following his win, and said he will be treating his family to a trip to Disney World.

Tonight’s win saw him land £275,000, while runner-up Humphries pocketed £125,000.
