There’s one place on the darting calendar Luke Littler can’t stop visiting.

The Nuke, 18, has travelled the world showcasing his talents over the past 12 months – en route to darting glory at the Paddy Power PDC World Darts Championship.

However, there is one location that has claimed his heart.

“I enjoyed it all it was a new experience for me,” Littler revealed to Daily Star Sport while promoting Specsavers’ Worst Best team campaign earlier this month.

“So this year I know what’s coming, but I always say the best place is Berlin for the Premier League of Darts. And obviously visiting New York!”

Littler is back to winning ways in the Premier League of Darts, taking the scalp of rival Luke Humphries in the final in Glasgow.

And Littler will already be marking his calendar for his return to Berlin on April 3, even if he doesn’t get to see a lot of the city: “It depends where we stay,” he added.

“Some places, we go to Germany quite a lot! But usually it’s hotel, food, and then you’re off to the venue to play darts… We finish very late.

“And then you can’t just go to a salad place, but most of the time I won’t eat because it’s not a good time to eat at 11pm/12am. Most of the time you just want to go to bed!”

And when asked if there were any locations he wished he’d get to see more of Littler added: “Not really, because the schedule is tight!

“So I just want to be in bed all day, but when we go out we go and have a look around.”
