Luke Littler on darts, life and his love for Manchester United

How has the teenager’s life changed since reaching the World Darts Championship final?

Teenager Luke Littler has experienced an extraordinary rise – becoming one of the breakthrough sport stars of 2024 after finishing runner-up at the World Darts Championship on his debut at the age of just 16.

Since then, Littler has won the Bahrain Masters and the Players Championship One event, played in the Premier League Darts – where he won for the first time in Belfast – and he’s appeared on TV shows as well as playing darts with Manchester United’s Christian Eriksen and Harry Maguire.

Away from the darts board, Littler is a big Manchester United fan and enjoys doing what many teenage boys like to do – playing video games and going on his phone – but has his life changed since the World Championship?

Littler tells Sportsworld’s Lee James all about what his life is like now and also his thoughts on Manchester United.
