To me that was his first big pressure test against someone who could keep up with him scoring wise and He still dominated,it looks like the longer sets suit him as he gets into a rhythm and it's scary.
Does the sky booth go out to the crowd? There’s a hell of an echo if not
Feel a bit sorry for him on Sky now, you can tell he's not comfortable with all the attention.
Sounds about right, I remember my missus getting a photo with him at the UK open years ago he had hair then!
Hes always been cocky MvG, even back then, I remember an interview he gave saying some of these players aren't very good, stuck with me that I've never really liked him.
I don't get that with Littler, he seems a good kid.
Look at this noob never having been to Ally Pally.
Cross was very on edge, overreacting to every little thing when playing well at the beginning compounds the downward form when not hitting the doubles.
It looked like he developed a tic everytime he bobbed his head to someone in the crowd after a good throw for the first 2 sets

Circus tavern is where it’s at
He's like the Wayne Rooney of darts.
I can only compare him to Ronnie, who was scoring centuries at 10 years old.
Refuse to believe he's 16. This is some fake passport nonsense, surely.
Seeing online that his girlfriend is 21? What's she at?
Tiger played off scratch at 13 too.
Only valid comparison is Cassius Clay who was beating the shit out of heavyweight adults at the age of 8.
Grooming
Nearly typed exactly that earlier… was talking to my Dad about it on Sunday and said it’s Ronnie-esque
As someone previously mentioned, being this good at 16, although ridiculous you can understand it if your practising religiously, it's the temperament ,the handling of pressure that's more impressive for me.I don't think it's really registering with him, hopefully he can do it for one more match before the reality kicks in!
I don't think anyone is questioning that part.
No, I think we all in shock tbh, comparisons with legends like Tiger,Ronnie and Cassuis Clay says it all.
I'd imagine they met on the PDC Development tour, but they clearly aren't doing any darts practice with her averaging in the high 40's.
I remember watching Barney vs Taylor years ago, pushing eachother with their 110 averages, and thinking darts would never get better than that. Littler is matching them like it’s nothing - at 16!
Conceivably could still be playing in world championships in 40 years time 
I know, it really is incredible, I just hope as others have mentioned he can be shielded from the inevitable spotlight, he's gonna be a superstar.
Taylor’s record is in danger.Conceivably could still be playing in world championships in 40 years time
Why?i was referring to the fact He's doing what they did at a young age, obviously they've done it throughout their careers but if he wins this tomorrow it's huge.Get a grip of yourself
Humphries is walking this
Are these the most well-groomed men in darts history? Steve Beaton aside.
Humphries is flying
I'm not digging the Humphries chest hair on show tbh
Humphriea racking up crazy averages.
Just watched a replay of the live stream on YouTube. Absolutely nuts, never seen anything like it
My uncle used to work for Ronnie's dad, and saw this at first hand. He used to demolish really good club players even at that age.
Absolutely.
The scoring here from Humphries is insane.
5 ton plus outs from Luke
Humphries is relentless
Lucky man, must of been incredible to watch a young kid like Ronnie in action.
