8:55 Stuff like MVG hitting 164 just to show Littler that he could take out Luke's finish in their final leg before Luke purposely takes out double 12 to show him he can do his double 24 is peak darts for me. Such a mental game.
Incredible! What a player this young man is! I think he's the best I've ever seen tbh and I've seen them all, over the last 50+ years. Superb entertainment! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@@robertcolcombe6893Phil Taylor has dominated everything for over two decades, no question. But Littler still plays darts from another planet again and again. There was Pele and Maradona - and yet you looked at Ronaldinho and said exactly the same thing. It is questionable whether Littler will ever achieve the legendary status of Phil Taylor. But what he's currently playing is unbelievable. The boy is 17 and plays one of the greatest of all time completely giddy.
@@alexanderjames6328 If you watched him play some few years ago you would understand my point, he is losing almost all matches he is participating against best players, he is very poor in hitting doubles and that is costing him big. He really challenged the greatest of all time Phil Taylor a few years ago but today he can't beat the likes of Luke Litler any day..
@@muitawambui6585can’t stand him anyway. When he was winning everything he was always giving it the big one, it’s great seeing the standards of darts go up and he’s not the big guy anymore 😂
luke just looked so focussed. to steamroller mvg and smith like that was just brilliant. shoutout to bully boy for the 170 that added just a bit more class to a fantastic session.
I think the top 10 players at the moment are probably the best we have ever seen collectively, but I must say littler is a breath of fresh air for darts. What a player now, let alone what he could become. Well done Luke. And well done all the other players for making it a great time to watch darts.
What a way to rap up the tournament in Amsterdam for the 2024 world series of darts finals ❤❤❤ love the darts ❤❤❤ good job everyone you guys done really well this weekend I'm so proud of all the players out there ❤❤❤ always love the darts ❤❤❤
MVG knows now how Phil Taylor felt 15 years ago when he was the Luke Littler of his time. Phil was the man but this kid named Michael Van Gerwin was so good
@@harry2.01 And started his first match of the year (that was not the WC) with a 9-darter against Asp + Won that tournament. Then wins the hardest tournament to win, argueably, the Premier League, as debutant, 17 yrs old, at 40 points and top for finals and wins the finals. And now at least 3 wins on the World Tour, plus a couple of Players Championships. Now he just needs 1 of each major title and a 9 darter in the World GP (double in) - He might just do 160 - 171 - 170 to Big Fish the 9-darter too :)
After listening to the commentary drone on every sentence about how amazing Littler is I switched support, turned the volume off and was rooting for Smith.
Dan Dawson has an encyclopaedic knowledge of darts. Disrespectful to compare him to commentators who think Clayton chose not to play in the World Series
The PDC really need to sort their ranking system out. The fact is, Luke Littler is easily one of the top 3 best players in the world now and has been for a while, yet he’s still not even ranked inside the top 20. It’s ludicrous. He’s miles better than the majority of those ranked above him.
Well 2024 it is not his year.....I guess every player will have some deep of form from time to time....and this is because the competition is ever greatest.....as the sport grow new fresh talent will emerge .....this is a sport where total dedication can surpass even pure talent,that said Luke is the biggest talent ever,as long as he keep training at least one hour a day,like he is doing then he will be OK........he won't win everything,but will win more than most........

This is hardly fair. Luke has the benefit of using "The Force". What the heck happened to Michael Smith? This was the slowest I've ever seen him throw.

This is not a major.
