Darts results: Luke Littler beats Michael van Gerwen to become youngest winner of PDC World Darts Championship at the age of just 17

At the age of just 17 and 347 days, the teenage prodigy smashes the record set by van Gerwen, who was 24 years and nine months old when beating Peter Wright to clinch the first of his three world titles back in 2014.

Twelve months on from a headline-spinning run to the final on his Alexandra Palace debut which transcended darts like never before and saw him become the biggest star the sport has ever produced despite ultimately finishing runner-up to Luke Humphries, Littler went one better on this occasion to get his hands on the Sid Waddell Trophy and a cheque for £500,000.

To beat such a player as van Gerwen was arguably the perfect way to end this particular chapter to his remarkable story, which has seen him already collect 11 titles, including the Premier League and Grand Slam of Darts, as well as over £1.5million in total prize money - a sum that most professional darts players won't earn in their entire careers.

And to add the icing on the cake, Littler also picked up the Ballon d'Art trophy for the most 180s thanks to a total of 76 that wasn't far off Michael Smith's tournament record of 83.

Littler, who was presented with both trophies by Olympic cycling hero Sir Chris Hoy, averaged 102.73 compared to his opponent's 100, threw 12 of the 23 180s and took out 56% of his doubles as MVG could only manage 36.8%.

And that finishing proved to be the real difference in a one-sided final which looked like being a rare whitewash when Littler led 4-0, taking 12 of the opening 15 legs in a dizzying spell which took less than 25 minutes.

Van Gerwen got on the board in set five with a 132 checkout and from that moment until the end, each set was won by the player throwing first. It was though Littler's blast from the blocks and a pace van Gerwen simply couldn't match that determined the outcome of the final.

In that sense, all it lacked bar a nine-dart finish was any real sense of jeopardy: from the very first leg which he won against the throw, Littler was in total control.

Littler's form since a shock first-round defeat to Andrew Gilding at the European Championship back in October has been frightening; even in a rare defeat against Luke Humphries in the Players Championship Finals he averaged over 100.

On this evidence, the rest of the tour might be relieved if he 'only' won another 11 titles in the forthcoming season.

Littler told Sky Sports: “I can’t believe it, honestly, I can’t believe it.

“We both played so well, and I said I needed to get off to a quick start tonight, and that’s what I did. But I knew Michael was behind me the whole game. Everyone dreams of lifting this trophy. I can’t believe it.

“That first game against Ryan Meikle, I keep saying it, but it’s the game that really mattered, and throughout I’ve just settled.

“At 2-0 up (in the final set) I started getting nervous but I said to myself to just relax. I was throwing for the match and to get it over and done with then was special.”

Van Gerwen, who last got his hands on the Sid Waddell Trophy back in 2019 but has now lost his last three World Championship finals, said: “Fair play to him, every chance he got, every moment he had to hurt me, he did it. I sometimes say that every 17 years a star gets born, and he is one of them.

“He did well and he deserves it. Of course it hurts, but that’s how it should be. If it doesn’t hurt, you’re not going to be a sportsman.

“It is what it is at the moment, and I have to move on, I have to make sure I keep playing better. I’m an old b****** compared to him! I have to take this on the chin. I wasn’t sharp enough at the beginning of the game.”
