Littler has transcended the sport following his explosion onto the scene at the World Championship over Christmas.

Luke Littler insists he is “just a lad doing what he does best” after Nathan Aspinall called him a celebrity rather than a darts player.

“Maybe look at my following, I might be classed as a celebrity,” he said. “But I’m just a lad doing what he does best.“I just have to get on with it. Whether I say things and don’t back it up. But at the minute I’m saying things and do back it up.” Littler beat his stablemate and friend Aspinall on the way to glory at the AO Arena on Thursday night.

“He is a fantastic talent. What he’s done for the sport. Forget about his darts ability because it’s not about his darts,” he said.
