🎯 Luke Littler ‘Shaken’ But Determined! 🎯
Hold onto your darts, folks! Luke Littler, the 18-year-old dart sensation, has had a whirlwind few days ahead of the Flanders Open this weekend. After a gruelling emergency dental procedure in Manchester—where he had a troublesome tooth pulled—Littler is feeling a bit ‘shaken’ and uncertain about his performance in Belgium.
The darting dynamo usually excels at taking things out on the oche, but this time it was his turn in the dentist’s chair, and it’s left him in shock. Despite this unexpected setback, Luke is packing his bags and heading to Antwerp with the hopes of taking home his third title.
Luke took to Instagram to share his ordeal: “In pain for hours, so had to get a tooth out. They sorted me, hoping to be good for Saturday!” He’s asking fans to give him some space as he navigates the airports, saying, “If you see me, I’ll have my AirPods in, just doing my thing.”
But Luke’s not the only one with a dramatic pre-tournament story. Fellow darting legend Gerwyn Price was hospitalised for an infected hand earlier this week but still plans to compete. Despite his hand being less than perfect, the Welshman aims to continue his winning streak in European Tour events. 🏆
With a £30,000 prize at stake, both players are looking to make their mark in Belgium, proving that the road to victory sometimes includes unexpected detours. Wishing Luke and Gerwyn all the best for the weekend! 🎯🇧🇪 #DartsDrama #FlandersOpen #LukeLittler #GerwynPrice
