The Nuke has become one of the biggest attractions in darts since his 2023 PDC World Championships run to the final and continues to dominate in the sport.

After reaching the final in the 2023 PDC World Championship, Littler went on to win the PDC Premier League a few months later and added a host of titles in 2024.

Towards the end of 2024, Littler went a step further in only his second World Championship, winning the entire tournament and lifting the trophy in January 2025.

He is now in the process of defending his Premier League title and has made a strong start, winning two of the opening five nights – most recently winning the entirety of night five in Brighton.

Collecting trophies and prize money is not the only strength that the teenager possesses, although he is second in the PDC Order of Merit, as Littler has also been crowned the biggest treble twenty on the European tour during the last five years.

Littler’s ability to hit 180’s is one of the reasons that fans have taken to him so quickly, as he smashed the record for most maximums in a calendar year.

The Nuke hit 836 180’s in 2024, breaking the record of 714 which was originally set by Michael ‘Bully Boy’ Smith back in 2022.

Research from PDC analyst, Christopher Kempf, revealed that Littler has the highest expected score when aiming for the treble 20.

His average of 38.64 is over two more than Luke Humphries, who ranks second with 38.64, which when you go through the top 10 is the biggest difference between the following player.

Another interesting stat that was revealed by the PDC analyst, is that Littler has also not left a bogey number in 468 consecutive legs (as of March 6th 2025).

In comparison, darts icon Michael van Gerwen left three bogey numbers in four legs against Brendan Dolan in the World Championship third round.
