LUKE AFTER No.1

Littler the big attraction now

- Mike Walters

LUKE LITTLER arrived at Alexandra Palace as the boy wonder of darts but tonight, on a bill featuring the world's top two, he is the main man.

Although Michael Smith continues the defence of his PDC World Championship crown against Madars Razma and Michael van Gerwen should blow away Richard Veenstra, 16-year-old Littler will be centre stage again.

And Luke the Nuke goes into his third-round contest against Canada's Matt Campbell with a gallery of champions lining up to acclaim him as the real deal.

Glen Durrant, Mark Webster, Gary Anderson, 'Bully Boy' Smith and Peter Wright have won nine world titles between them and none doubts the Warrington whizzkid's natural talent.
