Luke Littler has amassed a remarkable fortune of over £1 million through his meteoric rise in professional darts.
The teenage sensation’s earnings are split between his professional tournament winnings and invitational competition prizes.
According to the PDC Order of Merit, which tracks professional players’ earnings over two years, Littler has secured £618.5k from ranked tournaments.
His additional income from non-ranked events, including the Premier League and World Series of Darts, amounts to £395k.

Combined, these earnings total an impressive £1,013,500, establishing the 17-year-old as one of darts’ highest earners.
Tonight’s PDC World Darts Championship final offers Littler a guaranteed prize pot of £200k even if he finishes as runner-up.
Victory against Michael van Gerwen would see the teenage star claim a £500k jackpot alongside the coveted Sid Waddell trophy.
The stakes represent another significant opportunity for Littler to boost his already impressive earnings in professional darts.
The championship final could potentially increase his total career earnings to either £1.2 million with a runner-up finish, or £1.5 million should he emerge victorious.

Littler’s journey to financial success began with his professional debut 12 months ago.
In his first appearance at Alexandra Palace, he reached the final but fell 7-4 to Luke Humphries.
Despite the defeat, his runner-up position secured him a substantial £200k prize pot.
That tournament marked the beginning of Littler’s remarkable year in professional darts, where he quickly established himself as a dominant force.
His rise to fame has also seen him climb up the PDC’s Order of Merit and a victory over Van Gerwen will see him move up to second.
Beyond his tournament earnings, Littler has secured additional income through various brand partnerships.
He has established deals with major companies including BoohooMAN, Target, and Xbox.
