‘They said you weren’t ready’ – Luke Littler shares epic vid of Premier League nine-darter with cheeky nine-word comment
LUKE LITTLER took to social media to share a clip of his incredible nine-darter after winning his maiden Premier League title on Thursday.
The 17-year-old cruised to an 11-7 victory over world No1 Luke Humphries to take home the trophy.
And he completed a rare nine-dart finish on his way to glory.
Littler landed two 180s, then a treble 19 before a double 12 checkout to take the 11th leg.
Former darts star Glenn Durrant hailed it as the “greatest moment ever witnessed” in the tournament.
Spectators at the O2 Arena went wild as the teenager celebrated with a huge grin.
Littler took to Instagram to share a video of his impressive feat after the final.
He commented: “You asked for it and only went and delivered .”
Fans were quick to react, with one person writing: “They said you weren’t ready for the Premier League .”
Another said: “Different class after the break tonight especially. The first of many Premier League titles!”

A third commented: “Bro You’re absolutely incredible jeeeeeezzzz .”
While a fourth quipped: “Nine-darter and Premier League champion! Think you’ve earned a banging kebab?”
Following his historic win, Littler said: “For all the doubters, hello! I have just picked up this, you don’t doubt me anymore!
“It’s so good to win in front of my girlfriend, manager and family. I don’t know what to do now!
“I came off for the break. I went to the toilet and came back on. I thought, right, we are on until the end. I needed the toilet after the first two legs.
“All of us players love a break. We come back on and do what we have to do.
“I practised hard today. I was dead focused. I didn’t want to blink. I am a major winner now.”
Inside Littler's massive rise

The Nuke reached the final on his Ally Pally debut at just 16 years of age – smashing records along the way.
He has since joined Jude Bellingham on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list.
And the teenage titan even had to snub an invite from the WWE.
The Sun exclusively revealed that Littler is plotting to create a fitness empire.
He is also cashing in away from the Oche thanks to an Instagram side hustle.
And he’s even the face of a brand new cereal.
The wonderkid has now cemented his place among the tungsten elite by winning the Premier League Darts final – and the £275k top prize.
