Luke Littler begins his quest to defend the Premier League after claiming his first PDC World Darts Championship this month with a 7-3 victory against Michael Van Gerwen.
After a maiden world title, the Littler effect continues to transform the sport, with ‘The Nuke’ the top attraction again in this year’s Premier League alongside seven other top players.
The week-to-week league, beginning in Belfast’s SSE Arena on 6 February in 2025, sees the 17-year-old joined by world No. 1 Luke Humphries and runner-up in this year’s world championship Van Gerwen.
And the PDC confirmed the remaining players on Monday, with Rob Cross and the wildly popular Stephen Bunting included.
While Gerwyn Price, Chris Dobey and Nathan Aspinall have also been selected.
Peter Wright and Michael Smith are the only players not to return, despite the former enjoying a thrilling run to the quarter-finals of the World Championship at ‘Ally Pally’.
The eight players will battle it out over 16 nights, with the play-offs in London on 29 May deciding who walks away with the prestigious title, with £1m in prize money up for grabs.
