LUKE LITTLER has warned the oche fraternity he wants “to win everything” this year after picking up more silverware.
Despite jet lag after a relaxing family holiday in Orlando and a lack of practice, The Nuke smashed Rob Cross 8-3 to lift the £20,000 Poland Darts Masters on Saturday night in Gliwice.

It is his SIXTH title since turning pro, coming almost a month after winning the Premier League Darts in London and follows his successes in Bahrain, Wigan, Belgium and Austria.
Even in his debut season, Littler is now the 5-2 favourite to succeed at next month’s World Matchplay in Blackpool where the champion receives the Phil Taylor Trophy.
Littler – who will pull out of this week’s Euro Tour in Leverkusen in Germany – is in line to appear at World Series of Darts events in Australia and New Zealand in August.
The Warrington star said: “I’m playing well. I’m getting the job done. It’s another one added to the list.
“I want to win as much as I can. The first six months have been really good. Hit numerous nine-darters.
“I can’t wait for the second half of the season to kick in. I want to win everything. But it might not happen.
“I will be happy with another major. I’m looking forward to the World Matchplay. As well as the World Grand Prix and the Grand Slam of Darts.
“Going to Australia will be a big one. I can’t wait to get out on stage and throw darts in front of thousands again.

“I have grown into the sport. I have looked up to these guys but I know I can beat them most of the time. If my performances are there, then I will win.
“My performances have shown that I’m favourite for all these big tournaments in the next few weeks and months.
“It’s a heavy trophy. Where will this go? I don’t have a cabinet. It will probably just go on the floor in the living room – like the rest.”
