This lad is absolute gold for the PDC and the sport of darts. My interest in the sport was waning and then this lad comes along. He is the biggest thing to happen since Fallon Sharrock won at the Worlds.
I love the way Aspinall looks so angry with his own darts when he steps up for the second time . Then to see the joy in his face when he appreciates Luke’s 9 dart achievement is phenomenal sportsmanship
Just watched this amazing I’m I right in saying he’s the youngest to pull off a 9 darter in the history of pro darts def gonna be special this kid well done!!!
Am so proud to say he's my Cousin and our whole family are so proud of him. Hes the only one in a massive family that has achieved these great heights 🙏 and he is only a kid so hopefully the ones who are taking the piss out him can now appreciate how good he is instead of his appearance 🙏 am so happy he has a great fan base and alot of people support Luke 😀 he is a breath of fresh air and brought Darts back to the front line 👍 well done Luke ❤BOOOOM 🎯

Absolutely amazing…he’s got the world at his feet..he’s just doing what he loves without a care in the world and with his talent..that’s a very dangerous opponent
Amazing 9 darter from Luke and Nathan so pleased for him like that was brilliant to see.They've known each other for a few years and Nathan has watched Luke grow not just in his darts but from a child to a young man so it was lovely to see him hug Luke like that and congratulate him

Watching Luke brings back so many memories of what I could’ve achieved in the Darts world. I followed my Dad around the clubs & pubs of South East London. Whilst he entertained the customers with his brand of musical comedy, I began playing darts when no one else was playing. I wasn’t even tall enough to reach double 20 to retrieve my dart, so I would stand on a box to do so (10 yrs of age). I was soon playing adults. Within a year I was beating many throughout the pubs & clubs, learning to chalk scores proficiently. By age 12 I was being spoken about around many local pubs & clubs. Whenever junior competition came around, I was soon overlooked, and put into adult competition instead. News soon traveled, and a scout in the dart world came to watch me play, he didn’t make himself known. I was then told I had an offer to go to watch many of top names in darts (Bristow, Lowe, Wilson, amongst others) and play practice games against them. Sadly by age 12 I started missing school & got involved in street life, hanging with older lads & drinking, drugs, and crime. Darts took a back seat. Even years later whilst away on holidays I would play darts if we were in a pub or club. Thankfully I grew up & left the street life, settled down in marriage & became a responsible adult. Even to this day I can throw a fair dart whenever the opportunity arises, although now I live in East Africa, where darts isn’t a thing. It would be something special if I could introduce darts to Tanzania, and find a young talented child, and mentor him to achieve something you don’t see in the dart world, a African dart champion. Who knows 🧐
It's amazing what this young man has done for darts. I was talking to people who never watch darts but watched the final because of Luke. A friend of mine works for DPD told be he's delivering dart boards all the time. After the final, he has a bright future ahead.
Believe it or not, this was actually his second ever televised 9 darter, but his first one in a major tournament. He hit his first one at the JDC MVG Masters in 2021 at the age of just 14, but that wasn't fully televised or live, so this one was his first live televised 9 darter.
He made it look easy - it reminded me of snooker legend Ronnie O'Sullivan making a 147 in the World Championships in rapid time as if he was going through a practice session. Brilliant!
BRILLIANT 9 DARTER FROM "LUKE THE NOOK" LUKE LITTLER. IN THE FIRST LEG TOO. SIMPLY AMAZING WHAT THIS YOUNG LAD FROM MY HOME TOWN IN WARRINGTON IN THE UK...

Damn, that was just unreal! The sportsmanship of Nathan, we are used to it because he's a genuice nice guy but still.... massive respect. And about The Nuke; this guy should be banned, the way he keeps on smashing should be illegal 😂 At the age of 16, just unbelievable. Massive respect man 💪
Wow he is really good ..another Phil Taylor on the horizon...a breath of fresh air ..great to see new players in the darts ..keep going luke..beat the best ..as you will be the best in years to come ....

Great to see how happy Nathan is as well for him.
Proper good sportsmanship!
like honestly. you cant be mad at a 16 year old doin magic tricks hahahah
He was glad it was on his own throw.
I think they’re mates.
Impossible not to like the asp.
Nathan Aspinall looked nearly as pleased as Luke did,great respect and sportsmanship.
Great to see 🎉
Everyone loves The Asp
Massive respect to Nathan. What a gent! And what a dart player! Luke littler 👏🏻
True class act
I think, before the game, Nathan greeted Littler with the words „Hi Littler!“

Unbelievable skill for a young lad. Multiple world champ right there. Gonna be minted by the time he is 20.

Watched this like 10 times haha brilliant
Incredible doing this in the first leg, he is immediately locked in and the crowd has no affect on him, he has everything and only just turned 17 😮
This lad is special
Hats off to Luke! Come on lad!!! 👏

His grouping is stellar and his finishing akin to the renaissance masters.
The fact that this was the first leg of the match is what makes it insane
How great to see sportsmanship like that!
I’m glad to see the World championship wasn’t just a flash in the pan. Luke is the real deal.
The lads childhood dreams are playing out in real life.
Superb
Incredible young talent! 👍
Amazing to see our sport being recognised 🎉
Asp apparently joked to littler saying "It's only a hold of throw", top-class love the asp
Nathan whispered "great nine darter, thats half my build a bet up"
This is what darts is all about keep it going guys just enjoying the game

Bet he's livid, had a 180 average after 7 darts but had to lower it so he could avoid busting the 141 :(
Damn, that was just unreal!
The sportsmanship of Nathan, we are used to it because he's a genuice nice guy but still.... massive respect.
