Luke Littler: 'He's got skill in abundance' - Former darts trainer

Luke Littler's former coach has described the darts sensation as "like Usain Bolt... he's too quick for everyone else", after the 16-year-old took the PDC World Darts Championship by storm on his debut.

Karl Holden, a trainer at St Helen's Darts Academy, told the BBC that the darts sensation is "showing us that there's probably nobody better in the world and tonight, hopefully, he will prove it".

Mr Holden also said the darts academy where Luke trained has always been popular but since his rise to fame, they have "had loads of enquiries" from people wanting to join.
