Teenage darts sensation Luke Littler reveals his daily routine and it's very relatable
Teenage dart sensation Luke Littler has revealed his daily routine.
The 17-year-old has confessed that he often stays awake until about 2 or 3 in the morning playing on his Xbox. He then wakes up around 1 or 2 in the afternoon and continues alternating between the gaming console and the dartboard.
He told the Daily Mail: "I don't know why but I am always up until, like, 2am or 3am on my Xbox.

"I wake up at 1pm or 2pm and I do the same every day. I might need to get into a routine of going to bed at a normal time - I never see the morning. I get up, I go on my Xbox.
"When I get bored of that, I go on the practice board, and when I get bored of that, I go back on my Xbox. I practice for maybe 20 minutes or half an hour just to keep my arm loose. I think a big thing was when we first went into lockdown I was doing four or five hours a day because there was nothing else to do."
Littler also revealed he only practises for 30 minutes a day because he gets bored easily and plays on his Xbox. He said: "Now maybe it is 20 minutes or half an hour.
"Because I have my talent I don't really need to do silly hours again. The hard work paid off and I don't need to overdo myself any more."
Having gone deeper in a tournament than he expected to, Littler regrets not packing his beloved console. "I can't wait to go back on my Xbox," he revealed.
"I didn't bring it because I didn't think I would get to the final. I only practice for half an hour a day, because I get bored and have my Xbox next to me."
