Littler, 17, has had a whirlwind of a year, first bursting onto the scene at last year's competition where he made it all the way to the final, only to be denied his fairytale ending by current world number one Luke Humphries. His impressive run last year earned him a staggering £200,000 cheque but this year he will be hoping to do one better and take home the top prize. The only thing standing in his way is the Dutch veteran who will be looking to equal the largest payout of his career.
