The Premier League Darts 2024 season is well underway, and the competition is heating up as eight of the world’s best players prepare to battle it out in Exeter. Last year, Michael van Gerwen emerged victorious, securing his seventh Premier League Darts title by defeating Gerwyn Price in a thrilling finale. This year, however, a new player has captured the attention of the darting world – Luke Littler, the teen sensation who made waves by reaching the World Championship final in January. But how is the 17-year-old faring in the Premier League?
