“You went into this only wanting to win one game to then make it to the finals on your debut at 16 is the biggest achievement!
“We all love you so much, now time to chill and enjoy yourself.”
Reflecting on his incredible WDC debut, Littler said: “The one negative was I lost too many legs on my throw.
“Luke would break me, then hold, and I’d be 2-0 down. Fair play to Luke, he deserves it.
“I’ve got to the final, I might not get to another final for the next five to 10 years, we don’t know.
“But I can say I’m a runner-up and now I just want to go and win it.”
