Luke Littler clinched his third World Series of Darts title with an impressive 8-4 victory over Mike De Decker in Saturday’s KenoGO Australian Darts Masters final.
Littler arrived in Australia fresh from lifting the World Matchplay title a fortnight ago, and the World Champion maintained his winning run to triumph in Wollongong.
The Warrington wonderkid survived a major scare in his opening round tie on Friday, edging out New Zealand’s number one Haupai Puha in a last-leg decider.
However, normal service was resumed on Finals Day, as Littler overcame Damon Heta, Stephen Bunting and De Decker to secure his first World Series crown of 2025.
“It feels great,” reflected Littler, who was a runner-up on debut 12 months ago.
“I didn’t play that well last night, but I played very well tonight when it really mattered.
“Obviously it hadn’t gone to plan in the World Series this year, but there’s plenty of opportunities to win and I’ve finally picked up that trophy tonight.
“I cannot wait for Auckland now. We’ll have a few days off, and then it’s off to New Zealand we go!”
