Luke Littler: Peter Wright says teenager can be darts’ best

“He has shaken up the sport. You see him in the back room and his routine is about five minutes practice. Maybe that’s what we are all doing wrong – practising too much and wearing ourselves out.”

Littler’s dominance has been reflected in this season’s Premier League.

After 13 weeks of competition, the English teenager tops the standings going into Thursday’s event in Aberdeen.

Wright, who is bottom of the table, says Littler’s emergence has forced everyone else to up their game.

“In the first or second week, I said to him ‘if you start losing, you can come to me for advice – because you will start losing’. But he hasn’t yet,” he added.

“It’s what we needed. Michael van Gerwen came on to the scene just after Phil Taylor and raised the bar, and Littler he is doing the same.

“It is good for everyone else, to make us get our fingers out and practice harder.”
