From Darts to Rods: Luke’s New Venture
Seventeen-year-old darts sensation Luke Littler, known as “The Nuke,” is set to make a splash in a different sport as he joins a star-studded lineup for the Target Sports Stars Fishing Championship. Swapping his darts for fishing rods, Littler will compete alongside sporting greats such as David Seaman and Ebanie Bridges. Despite never having fished before, Littler is thrilled to participate in the charity event, which will be aired on ITV4 and ITVX come July 30.
Sporting Stars Gather for Charity
The competition, which will take place in Warwickshire, will feature an impressive roster of athletes, including England football legend Terry Butcher, former boxing world champion Kell Brook, and snooker superstar Steve Davis. Littler, who has achieved remarkable success in darts, including a World Championship final appearance at just 16, is set to join three darts colleagues in a four-hour team fishing event.
Raising Funds for a Cause
The 12th annual fishing championship aims to support the Willow Foundation, a charity providing special experiences for young adults with life-threatening conditions. Luke Littler, alongside other sporting figures and celebrities, will help raise funds for this noble cause, exemplifying the spirit of giving back to the community.
Littler’s Meteoric Rise in Darts
Littler’s journey to the top of the darts world has been nothing short of spectacular, earning him a spot on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list alongside Jude Bellingham. With a Premier League Darts title and a hefty £275k prize to his name, Littler has not only become a force within the sport but also a budding entrepreneur, with ventures ranging from a fitness empire to an Instagram side hustle, and even becoming the face of a new cereal brand.
The Nuke’s Call-Out to Social Media Star
Not one to shy away from a challenge, Littler has expressed interest in stepping into the boxing ring, calling out TikTok personality Beavo during an appearance on Ariel Helwani’s MMA podcast. Though known for his darts prowess, Littler seems eager to test his mettle in a new arena, adding an exciting dimension to his already impressive young career.
As Littler continues to dominate the darts scene and venture into new sports, fans and spectators alike are keen to follow the journey of this versatile young athlete.
