Luke Littler's most extravagant purchase from huge darts winnings says it all

Luke Littler has racked up significant prize money following his remarkable darts breakthrough at the start of the year - but he's not spending it all in one go.

The 17-year-old stunned the sports world by finishing as runner-up at the World Championship in January, losing to Luke Humphries in the final. He has since gone on to prove it was no fluke, with multiple tournament victories, including the Premier League and the World Series of Darts Finals.

Earlier this week, Littler clinched his ninth PDC title of the year at the Players Championship 20 event in Wigan, adding another £15,000 to his winnings.

He managed to fend off a strong comeback from Stephen Bunting to secure an 8-7 victory. This victory extended the teenager's winning streak to 12 games, coming hot on the heels of his victory at the World Series of Darts in Amsterdam the previous weekend.
