Luke Littler aiming for rare successful defence of his World Championship title
Luke Littler wants to become the first person in a decade to successfully defend the World Championship.
Littler became the youngest world champion when he beat Michael van Gerwen in the 2025 final and his star has only risen since.
The 18-year-old has won five major titles since then, including the Players Championship last weekend, and has overtaken Luke Humphries to sit at the top of the rankings.
