Luke Littler has announced that he will be “taking a step back” to pursue “something he loves”.
In a cryptic video posted on X on Thursday (18 September), the reigning world darts champion reflected on his “awesome career”, adding that he “couldn’t ask much better for myself”.
Listing off some of his accomplishments, the 18-year-old thanked fans for a “phenomenal two years” but admitted it was time to step away.
“It’ll shock some people. It’s not been an easy decision. Now I want to focus and do something I really love.”
Standing up and walking out of the camera, Littler can be heard mumbling: “You think they’ll fall for that?”
