Luke Littler joint favourite for Premier League & World Championship Darts

Following his Bahrain Masters victory last week and runners-up showing at the World Championship, bookmaker Ladbrokes are just 3/1 about the 17-year-old winning the Premier League, which gets underway next month.

Meanwhile, it is 7/2 that he goes one better at Ally Pally next year and becomes world champion, a price he shares with the man who will be defending the crown, Luke Humphries.

“Luke Littler's fast-becoming the one to beat on the oche,” Ladbrokes’ Alex Apati told FreeTips.com.

“And having now seen off four former world champions in his last two tournaments alone, punters are convinced the Premier League title, and next year's Worlds trophy, will have his name on them.”
