Littler wants to be 'greatest darts player ever' - how close is he to Taylor?

Luke Littler has reiterated his dream to become the ‘greatest darts player ever’ after his dominant Betfred World Matchplay title defence, with the world No 1’s latest win drawing further comparisons to Phil Taylor’s past record-breaking success.

Littler capped off a historic week at Blackpool's Winter Gardens becoming the first player since Michael van Gerwen to successfully defend his title, continuing his record of winning every PDC major title in 2026 so far.
