Luke Littler turns 18: Darts world champion already has 'best early birthday present' Luke Littler says he will enjoy a low-key 18th birthday celebration with his family having already given himself the best early present by winning the World Championship.

The 18-year-old created history by becoming the youngest world champion when he beat Michael van Gerwen in the Alexandra Palace final earlier this month, when aged 17, to cap a stellar first year on the PDC Tour where he also won the Premier League and the Grand Slam of Darts.

He travels to Den Bosch for the Dutch Darts Masters later this week before the World Masters at the end of the month and the Premier League starting in February.

While turning 18 is a rite of passage for most youngsters and is celebrated in style, Littler will be having a quiet one, mainly due to the hectic forthcoming schedule.

Littler celebrates becoming an adult on Tuesday, having already racked up a raft of career achievements most could ever dream of.
