Littler Leads 2025 Premier League Darts

Luke Littler continues to dominate the 2025 Premier League Darts, solidifying his lead with a decisive 6-1 victory over world No.1 Luke Humphries in Newcastle. This marks Littler's fourth win in the series, extending his lead to 26 points at the season's halfway point, well ahead of second-placed Humphries. Despite his success, former champion Dennis Priestley has advised Littler to take a break to avoid burnout, highlighting the relentless schedule he faces. Littler's remarkable achievements include becoming the youngest world champion and winning five major titles, though he is yet to claim the world No.1 spot. Newcastle's football stars, fresh from their Carabao Cup victory, were present to witness Littler's performance. The teenager's rise in darts is seen as a shifting point in the sport, with experts predicting he will soon overtake Humphries in the rankings.
