Luke Littler is the 7/2 favourite to win the World Darts Championship at the end of the year
Betting is also available on the World Darts Championship towards the back end of the year with Luke Littler now the favourite to win the biggest tournament of the year.
Littler reached the final of the tournament at the start of 2024 in his debut WDC and that performance made him come somewhat of a household name.
Despite losing that final, Littler came out of the tournament as the biggest winner with his name now putting him at the forefront of Darts in this country despite being so young.
