People who bet just £10 on Luke Littler to win World Darts Championship are set to win a lot of money tonight

The 16-year-old is on course to completing his history-making World Championship dream

If you're one of those fans who bet just £10 on Luke Littler to win the PDC World Darts Championship - you are set to win a heck of lot of money tonight.

Without a doubt, the 16-year-old, from Cheshire, has been the surprise package of this year's competition after becoming the youngest-ever PDC finalist.

Last night (2 January), he got one step closer to his dream after securing a place in the final with a convincing win over Rob Cross.

He won 6-2 in sets, producing three 130-plus checkouts while averaging 106.05.

“I haven’t got the words. It’s crazy,” he said.

“I have just settled on that stage.

“It has not even sunk in yet.

“I have surprised myself.

“I have just got to stay focused and be Luke Littler.

“I have got to be mature and be myself.

“It would be unbelievable if I won it, I only wanted to win one match.”

Littler is also on track to becoming a very wealthy man.

Having reached the final, he is guaranteed an eye-watering £200,000 - and if he manages to go all the way - he'll get a whopping £500,000.

However, it's not just Littler who will profit big from tonight's (3 January) final against world number one Luke Humphries.

Some betting fans - who put as little as £10 on Littler to win the lot - managed to get in on ridiculous 300/1 odds.

That's a £3,000 profit.

Taking to X (Twitter), one better tweeted: "I had an each way bet for him to win the whole thing. I get paid regardless of what happens now."

"Fingers crossed he can do the job," a second added, while someone else said: "I’ve got him on 66/1 outright. Not taking the cash out as I’m not gonna lie, I had no idea who the lad was and slapped the bet on as a laugh knowing he was 16 years old, sticking by him now."

Whatever happens in tonight's final, Luke ‘the Nuke’ has already made history by becoming the youngest person to win a quarter final game at the World Darts Championships.

This all happened after he faced one of his heroes, Raymond van Barneveld.

After beating the Dutchman, Littler said: “It's incredible beating one of my idols on the biggest stage of all, I still can't believe it. I think I am daring to dream now, I have seen the draw.

“I'm so young, only 16 and I have got nothing to fear, I have got no one to fear, my game can be better than anyone's on the day and I have shown it there against one of the greatest to have graced that stage.

“With performances like that I can go all the way. I've pictured myself winning it.

"I fancy myself. I do fancy myself."
