LUKE LITTLER will break his boycott and compete in a £175,000 darts tournament after a “head loss moment.”
The ace is returning to Germany in October for the German Darts Championship in Hildesheim.

Littler will join stars including Luke Humphries, Michael van Gerwen and Stephen Bunting for the three day extravaganza.
And it will mark his first appearance in Germany since his disastrous World Cup of Darts performance.
Even that was a one-off, with Littler previously refusing to play in the country.
He was booed and jeered while competing at the German Darts Grand Prix in April.
Earlier in the year, Littler was also whistled on the Premier League night in Berlin.
It saw him post on Instagram that he was boycotting playing in Germany.
But Littler will return to the country next month as he seeks to win the £175k on offer at the German Darts Championship.
He will certainly be hoping it goes better than his last game in the nation of beer and bratwurst.

Littler teamed up with fellow Brit star Humphries in the hope of bringing the World Cup to England.
But they were knocked out in the second round by the host nation, with Martin Schindler and Ricardo Pietreczko winning 8-4.
Littler admitted in June that playing in Germany this year resulted in a “head loss moment.”
He told Sky Sports: “I had a little head loss moment, I don’t get it and can’t explain it.
“Obviously you do your walk-on but then as soon as I got on stage, I started getting booed.
“I got booed in Hildesheim last year, I was flying and they started booing and I lost. Obviously, the Germans mustn’t like us English.”
