Luke Littler has arrived home with the World Darts Championship trophy on the back of making history at Alexandra Palace on Friday night. Littler became the youngest champion in the sport's history as he dispatched of three-time champion Michael van Gerwen 7-3 before he broke down into tears as the celebrations commenced.
The teenager earned a cool £500,000 for the accolade and revealed he is keen to buy a Mercedes A-class with the prize money - despite not yet knowing how to drive - and also received a good luck message from David Beckham. Speaking after his win on Saturday morning, with Mail Sport present, he revealed that he was keen to get home 'and recharge'.
And that's exactly what he has done, heading back to Warrington and his family home, which he has helped his family move into on the back of his darting success. Taking to social media on Saturday evening, Littler shared a photo alongside the Sid Waddell trophy, cozied up in bed and surrounded by Christmas bedding. The caption read: 'Home sweet home,' accompanied by a smiling emoji.
