Luke Littler became the youngest ever world champion of darts after beating Michael van Gerwen 7-3 in the final at Alexandra Palace.
Littler, 17, was beaten by world No 1 Luke Humphries in last year’s final, but he returned to the same stage 12 months later and made no mistake this time, overwhelming his esteemed opponent with peerless finishing to race into a 4-0 lead.
