LUKE LITTLER won a hamper of Belgian BISCUITS and admits he is ready for crunch time.

The teen sensation picked up his fourth European Tour victory with the Flanders Trophy in Antwerp on Sunday night.

It was his SEVENTH title win of 2025 and he picked up £30,000, a cheap-looking trophy and a huge hamper of biscuits and sweets.

But now the 18-year-old darts star knows it’s down to the serious business of big tournaments in the autumn and winter.

He said: “This is it now, the back end of the year. From now it’s four to five weeks of back-to-back-to-back. Euro Tour, World Series finals and back to the Euro Tour. 

“September and October are the craziest months in the calendar. Us players know how to deal with it.”

Littler has put on record his dislike for playing in Germany but showed his affection for Belgian fans after taking his third title in the country in two seasons, beating Josh Rock in the final.

He added “I love the crowds here, they love me, I love them. 

“A bit through the game they wanted Josh to win. As soon as I came back I knew they’d have to pick and choose which one they wanted to support. I just had to crawl back from 4-1 down.”

Best pals Littler and Rock played out another high-quality showdown just over a month since their World Matchplay semi classic which featured the most perfect leg of darts in TV history.

Rock hit a stunning 161 to save the match in the penultimate leg but Littler delivered a powerhouse final leg to win the clash. 

Rock said: “I think the 161 was a fluke because I thought it was a 124, I looked at his score instead of my score. That’s why I stood back before it went in!

“When you go to a last leg decider with the world champion, you have to give it your all. Unfortunately I didn’t do that but we move on. 

“If it’s the last leg decider to win the title, obviously you are going to think about it. It’s always a learning curve. I’m here to compete as much as I can.”
