‘Never seen anything like it’ – Luke Littler sends fans into meltdown with stunning nine-darter on first leg of game
LUKE LITTLER left fans in awe after hitting a NINE-DARTER in the first leg of his 6-3 win over Nathan Aspinall at the Bahrain Masters.
The teenage sensation, 16, has followed up his fairytale run to the PDC World Darts Championship final with back-to-back wins in his first tournament since Ally Pally.
And on Friday he made more headlines with a perfect leg of darts against Nathan Aspinall.
The Warrington wonderkid opened up his quarter-final clash with a remarkable nine-darter as the crowd went wild.
It makes him the youngest person to hit a nine-darter in a senior PDC darts event.
He has broken the previous record set by Michael van Gerwen when he was 17 years and 10 months old.

Reacting to the breathtaking moment, one person said: "Never seen anything like it. Luke Littler 9 darter first leg of the game. Madness."
Another added: "Luke Littler you are outrageous."
A third responded: "Fair play Luke Littler, first leg today and gets a 9 darter! Awesome talent. #darts."
A fourth replied: "Littler's just hit a 9 to start the match. Kid is insane."
And a fifth said: "Oh my goodness me... take a bow Luke Littler."
Littler is now eyeing a first PDC title after falling short against Luke Humphries in the world championship final earlier this month.
He will face Gerwyn Price in the semi-finals after the Welshman defeated Humphries to avoid a rematch of the Ally Pally final.
