Thanks
something tells me Wright won’t be using these darts after the break.
He’s a Warrington lad, but he’s the oldest looking 16 year old in the world.
106 average at 16. Special talent clearly!
Don't all dart players (except that one Indonesian dude) look at least 10 years older than they are?
Must have had a paper round in Chernobyl.
Snakebite in serious trouble here, 0-2 down and not finishing well.
Think Wright is on his bike, such an odd year from him. Wouldn't shock me to see him in the seniors next year.
Luke Littler must have one dodgy passport.
Wow. Wade and Wright already gone now.
I’m telling ya, he’s winning the whole damn thing. Mind you, he was born too close to one of those polluting chemical plants nearby Warrington.
Think Price beats him in the QF.
They’ll be all shitting bricks facing him, even MVG. Mind you he better hurry up and win the damn tournament soon, because he looks like he’ll die of a heart attack before he reaches 30. Bit like Luke Shaw.
I think that’s the key though in most sports, especially individual ones. How you deal with the pressure on the big stage. Most of these darters are supposed to be super stars off the podium if we’re to believe the fellow pros, it’s just that most can’t handle the pressure on the big stage. That’s what makes Littler so special, 16 and already he looks extremely comfortable on the big stage. Takes a special kind of personality to be able to do that at such a young age in any sport.
I can only think of one and that was in the former BDO and that is Leighton Bennett who I think was 14. Not sure who else.
Fair deuce I hadn't even heard of him or seen him... well I have now. Nothing seemed to rattle him. An unbelievable display of darts and such talent. So impressed with him and again brilliant call @Rams.
Large section of the draw wide open. As someone said Wright could be over to the Seniors. He's at no7 and was defending a deck load of prize money.
Honestly think there's more top seeds in for a few shocks. The amount of young talent coming through is staggering.
Didn't look Wright the whole match.
He looks more 28. I missed it on the rerun on sky just now cos I was stuck on a work call - feck me 106.Shame he's crashed out. It's strange how crap he's been over the last two years since winning the worlds. He still won the European though and can't see him going for the peanuts on offer in the seniors tour yet. Hopefully he's not done, though him and Ando are now 53, so year older than when Taylor quit, so can't have long left.
He's worryingly obese for his young age.
Overweight yes, but worryingly obese in todays world? Not to my eyes.
Doesn't look at all like a 16 year old. I'm sure he is, but if I met him in a pub, I'd assume at least 25 if he didn't say anything.
No one's asking him for ID based on appearance alone

Needs to bulk up if he's going to make it.
Could do with a loan to the Championship.
He's trying to find something that's probably left him maybe for good, time runs out for everyone it's hard to see him coming back he'll be out of the PL lineup and his ranking is falling, a shame but he's had a tremendous carerr
All those 1s at the end made me sad
looks likes he's been pounding the pints and kebabs since age 10Cracking game this one. He's the real deal.
Littler into the third round, he's very good.
16 my arse. He looks about 25.
Think he's got Matt Campbell next too.
Another kebab go on boy!
go on boy!Bit of a drop-off from him tonight which was to be expected I suppose. Absolutely delighted he’s dumped Gilding out.
Williams wires the 9, not seen anyone go T16 T19 to leave D18 before
Yeah not seen that before shame he couldn't pin the 18's
The kid looks like somebody asked AI to 3D print the quintessential darts player minus an arm tattoo.
Jose's slide down the rankings look set to continue, don't think he will be a seed next year.
Between the football fan crowd with incessant repetitive chanting and adds every four mins this is impossible to watch
I think it's been pretty decent to watch so far this year, but sometimes some nights of the first two rounds before Xmas can be a bit of a drag.
Been some cracking matches so far though for sure.
