FROM bursting on to the scene at the World Championship to becoming a millionaire, Luke Littler has enjoyed a stunning 2024.
When the teen sensation made his Ally Pally debut almost a year ago, beating Christian Kist 3-0, nobody would have predicted his remarkable rise.
Littler banked £200,000 for losing in last year’s final to Luke Humphries and has continued pocketing huge cheques since. His 2024 prize money currently stands at £1,028,500.
An incredible £633,500 comes from ranking events and it includes the £15,000 minimum he will get for appearing at the World Championship.
Winning the invitational Premier League and World Series of Darts banked him the other £395,000.
The huge windfall has come from winning an incredible ten titles in all. To list them all, he has the crowns for the Premier League, Grand Slam, World Series, Bahrain Masters, Poland Masters, Austrian Open, Belgian Open, and three Players Championships.
To underline his domination, Littler has sealed victory in 145 of 189 games played.
There have been five nine-darters and 800 maximums in PDC matches across the year.
Unsurprisingly, that is the highest amount of 180s hit by any player.
Humphries is next on that list with 671. Littler averaged 99.26 throughout matches in 2024.
And his best came against Damon Heta at the Czech Darts Open when he recorded an insane 116.51.
If he can bring that form to Ally Pally, it will be tough to stop the 17-year-old from winning the Sid Waddell Trophy and putting another £500,000 in his pocket —Sun.
