‘I don’t want to be here’: Luke Littler reveals why he broke down in tears after World Darts Championship win TEARY Luke Littler admits his nerves were so bad on Saturday night that he walked on stage and thought: ‘I don’t want to be here.’.
Littler explained: “That game was probably the most important game I have ever played.
Though he managed to prevail, beating Ryan Meikle 3-1 with a record-set average of 140.91 in set four, Littler was vulnerable in the early throws.
This was due to the crippling nerves he felt and he said: “As soon as the referee said ‘Game On’ the bottom has gone.”.
The pressure of being the World Championship favourite only hit the 17-year-old wonderkid when he returned to the world-famous oche after a near 12-month absence.
