Darts: “Waste time”: Littler’s conflict threatens to escalate

Darts world champion Luke Littler is fed up with whistles and boos from fans. In an interview with the Online-Darts portal in Amsterdam, the 19-year-old Englishman said: “If the Dutch continue like this, then I won’t do any more Euro tours there. There’s just no point in me traveling and wasting my time while I’m being booed.”

Littler’s feud with German fans

Littler is currently competing in the World Series of Darts Finals, where he defeated local hero Danny Noppert and Nathan Aspinall in the first two rounds. Littler has repeatedly had to deal with boos in the past, both in the Netherlands and in Germany. “I just want to play my darts, sign autographs, obviously,” said Littler, who currently dominates the darts scene like Michael van Gerwen or Phil Taylor once did.

The world number one had similar experiences in Germany. After a tournament in Munich in April 2025, he said he would not compete in Germany again for six months. “And I’m happy to say it,” Littler announced at the time. Littler is planning to start at the European Championships in Dortmund (October 22nd to 25th). “We’ll see if something changes or if it stays the same.”
