Fans have noticed something different about Luke Littler after seeing his win at a recent tournament.
The 2024 Premier League darts champion competed at his local event in Cheshire, winning both the warm up men's event and the men's singles across two days.
Entry fees across the two competitions cost a total of £35 but the prize money for the open event was a tidy £1000 for the winner - as well as £250 for a nine darter.
Littler emerged victorious and posted about his double triumph on Instagram, writing: "Some weekend, winning the warm up men's event and the cheshire open men's singles, good [sic] see all my fellow teammates from cheshire."

One wrote: "The Nuke slimming down. Not so much a nuke now.. more a grenade I'd say."

On his Instagram story, Littler wrote: "Everyone needs to stop sending hate towards Eloise saying it's her fault and this and that, I myself split up with Eloise and everyone just needs [to] give us some time, no need for everyone to message her and give her grief."
The two met at a PDC Development Tour event in Leicester back in August and started their relationship shortly after.
