Darts wonderkid celebrates historic win with kiss from his girlfriend

LUKE LITTLER planted a kiss on Ally Pally to complete his triumph over Brendan Dolan.

The 16-year-old star entered the PDC World Darts Championship semi-finals and locked lips with girlfriend Eloise as he moved away from the dartboard.

As “Luke the Nuke” keeps brushing away every seasoned veteran that stands in his way, the country has been caught up.

He is currently 13/8 FAVOURITE to win the tournament since Scott Williams caused a major shock by knocking out Michael van Gerwen later on.

Littler’s convincing 5-1 victory over Dolan only served to further amaze everyone with his skill level for a kid his age.

With one more victory, the adolescent will secure his place in Wednesday’s championship match, and his family and friends are ecstatic for him.

After taking some photographs with the audience in celebration of his quarterfinal performance, he kissed his girlfriend Eloise, who was spotted wearing the same blue jersey as him and is said to be 21 years old.

Eloise, a darts player and beauty consultant from Surrey, wasn’t the only person cheering on the Warrington boy as he darted off to celebrate with his family.

After seeing his amazing progress during Christmas, she even sent a message on Instagram expressing her pride in him. Littler’s sister Caitlin also wrote a heartfelt message of support online.

Tuesday comes Littler’s semi-final matchup against Rob Cross, but he can relax knowing that his victory over Dolan secured him a six-figure salary.

And when the competition ends on Wednesday, he may take home the Sid Waddell trophy and the £500,000 first prize.

The “Prince of the Palace” is optimistic that he will win the world championship by midweek, since the former 150-1 challenger is now vying for the top spot.

Should he advance to the semifinals, he will square off against either Luke Humphries, who defeated Dave Chisnall 5-1 in his quarterfinal, or Scott Williams, who unexpectedly defeated Michael van Gerwen 5-3.

Littler declared following his victory, “It will take a lot to beat me, considering my past results in these Worlds.”

“I am aware that I possess the capacity to succeed.

“I know I have a decent opportunity and that I have a strong sense that I can succeed right now. Regardless of Luke Littler’s appearance.

“I have a strong chance if I keep doing this. I have two games left to go. Undoubtedly, the title is on my mind.

I’ve never given it any thought before. It’s astounding.

“Rob is yet another impediment. It goes without saying that he won it on his debut, and now I’m hoping to do the same.

“This is unbelievable. I’ve felt confident ever since the opening game with Christian Kist.
