Littler is already a fans’ favourite and has racked up a huge amount of prize moneyPDC “Everyone dreams of lifting this trophy. You’ve got to get through a tough field. I can’t believe it. “I keep saying it but that first game against Ryan Meikle [in round two] was the one that really mattered, and throughout I’ve just settled. “At 2-0 up [in the final set] I started getting nervous but I said to myself to just relax. “I was throwing for the match and to get it over and done with then was special.” Luke Littler: Net worth Littler is now a millionaire, though his exact total net worth is unknown.
