Luke Littler sets sights on beating Phil Taylor’s record haul of 16 world darts titles

Associated Press  

LONDON — Luke Littler has set his sights on becoming the most successful darts player ever after becoming the sport’s youngest world champion at age 17. Fresh from beating three-time champion Michael van Gerwen 7-3 in the world championship final on Friday, Littler said he was targeting darts great Phil Taylor’s record haul of 16 world titles. Taylor is the only player to have won the world championship more than five times, yet Littler — a generational talent who has taken darts into the mainstream — believes he could set a new record. “I could be chasing Michael’s three titles and potentially Phil’s 16,” Littler said.
