Just wow
Darts
- Thread starter StuCol
- Start date
I was thinking, Phil Taylor won as many World titles as Littler is old.
What's the record for most televised 9 darters? You have to think he'll obliterate whoever it is before he turns 21.
What time will the final be?
In about 20/30 mins probably
Smith or MVG will need to up their games to stand a chance against the Nuke.
Aspinals reaction to littler hitting the 9 darter was class fairplay.
Oooh nice
They’ve got the same management, they’ve been hanging out together.
Littler is a generational talent, some guy.
Yeah I get that but still good to see in a competitive match, doesn’t have to be like that
No sure, absolutely.
He’s always like that the Asp. Nice guy.
Not the highest quality so far? 
Littler is unlucky not to be clearly ahead.
Littler missed a few chances, but is purtting MVG under pressure.
T
I think it's darts' Tiger Woods moment.
Someone who has mastered the game to such a level, at such a young age that has burst onto the scene and is now transcending the sport.
Don’t think I’ve seen so many <60 throws
edit or missed doubles

Go on The Nuke. Some player.
Deserved…. superb talent and mental attitude
He did it! Felt underwhelming as they both weren’t on fire. But goodness he is incredible. His natural technique when he throws is immense.
The only slight criticism I have is he seems a bit fixated on leaving 170. Ok he did hit one but when on 186 going for S16 seems not great when you could throw for T19 and leave 129 or 167.
What would I know anyway? He's doing just fine.

MVG was wat off it but how good was that to win his first tournament as a pro against the very best players in the World. Agree with the poster who said Littler will transcend the sport, he’ll put darts on the global map big time. Game changer.
Darts is the 3rd story on the BBC News website has that ever happened before, Ole Barry Hearn is rubbing his hands together as we speak
Probably a bit of showboating that happens with young players in most sports
He's getting the same vibe as when he went into the Circus Tavern and spoke with Phil Taylor before that Final vs Barney and said we've got to get this over to a bigger venue so as we all know along came Alexander Palace and brought the football fans over too. The Premier League is a juggernaut and even more so now with Littler an absolute sell out. Hearn and the PDC fully capitalizing and rightly so and a whole new population who never watched or bothered with darts tuning in and paying in to see it.
I’m mean
As unbelievable it was too get too the World Final, too lose that Final and bounce back with a tournament win beating MVG in the Final……the kids got fearless youthfulness on his side along with quite clearly a generational talent with mature mental fortitude
Darts has been put right back on the Sporting map, people are invested in this Kid already

I think it’s getting to the stage where the pressure of playing Littler is getting to the opponent.
I bet his opponents are desperate to be the one to put him in his place.Can see him smashing it in the prem.
He seems to be getting fatter. The excess weight around his hips and waist is quite something for a 16 year old.
Odd one for Humphries- he was absolutely the man for four months, smashing everyone, and now all eyes are on Littler.

Fairly comfortable win there for Noppert vs Aspinall
Wright
What channel is this on if any?
Nevermind got it ITV4 120
Impressive from van Veen but Smith looked like he didn't want to be there
This year really does look like a changing of the guard. Wright is finished, Smith isn't at the races for now and loads of young hungry players gonna make their mark.
Nice little pick me up for Barney. These comps mean feck all but might be a confidence booster.
Littler v diving board now
He’s something else this kid! His throw is so natural.
Littler beating Humphries last leg. Was a good match and the kid takes on some unconventional outshots and is great to watch.
Littler turned 17 this and has only still lost 1 match on the PDC tour
