LUKE LITTLER has smashed his own personal best average in a dominating win over Damon Heta.
The world champion, 18, cruised to a 6-1 victory in the quarter finals of the Players Championship on Tuesday.
Littler averaged an outrageous 122.96 over seven legs against the Australian.
It was The Nuke’s personal best average in any PDC contest since making his debut two years ago.
And he fell just agonisingly short of the world record, currently held by Peter Wright.
Snakebite holds the world’s best televised average after posting 123.53 against Krzysztof Ratajski in 2019.
Littler was just over 0.5 points away from matching Wright’s feat in Tuesday’s win.
He hit six 180s over seven legs, with a high checkout of 81.
The teenager’s worst leg was a 13-darter and he found six of his nine attempts at doubles.
Littler’s outrageous form has seen him win a remarkable 19 straight matches.

He has won back-to-back Premier League events, lifted the UK Open title and defended his Belgian Open crown all in the space of three weeks.
One fan gasped on X after Littler’s performance: “Scary run of form he is on right now.”
Another said: “This guy is gonna destroy the sport. Next X years he will be dominating too much.”
While a third added: “He’s genuinely so much better this year than he was last year. How’s that possible?”
And a fourth commented: “Best player in the world by some distance now.”
Littler’s crazy average comes just hours after he hit a nine-darter against Adam Hunt in round two.
It was the fifth perfect leg of Littler’s professional career as he hit 180, 180, 141 going the standard route for perfection.
LUKE LITTLER has taken the darts world by storm since exploding onto the scene at the PDC World Championship at the beginning of the year.
The Nuke reached the final on his Ally Pally debut at just 16 years of age – smashing records along the way.
He has then gone on to win a host of PDC events and the Premier League title – which he claimed at the O2 Arena by beating world champion Luke Humphries in May.
He also finished his first season in the World Series as the No1 ranked player.
He has joined Jude Bellingham on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list.
And the teenage titan even had to snub an invite from the WWE.
The Sun exclusively revealed that Littler is plotting to create a fitness empire.
He is also cashing in away from the Oche thanks to an Instagram side hustle.
And he’s even the face of a brand new cereal.
But he is newly single after splitting from girlfriend Eloise Milburn following a 10-month relationship.
Check out all of our latest Luke Littler stories.
And The Nuke admitted earlier this month he is determined to supplant Luke Humphries as the reigning World No. 1.
Following his UK Open win, Littler said: “At the World Championship, Luke Humphries will be defending a hell of a lot of money.
“And if he doesn’t defend it, that could be my chance to shoot up to No.1.
“Obviously if I play him in any of these ranking events, I want to stop him from adding to his prize money or defending it. I think No.1 is in sight now.
“It’s another free year. I’m not defending anything. I want to add on and add on prize money to become world No.1.”
WETHERSPOONS has added a new draught beer to its line up and prices start from £3.20 a pint.
Punters can pick up the 1664 Kronenbourg Bière (4.6%) across all its more than 800 boozers.
The French tipple, described as refreshing, crisp and golden with floral notes, costs £3.99 at the vast majority of Spoons pubs.
Punters can also get it for £3.20 at most branches on Mondays through the Monday Club deal, which it brought back last May.
Bear in mind, prices may vary depending on which pub you go to. You can find your nearest via jdwetherspoon.com/pub-search.
Wetherspoons confirmed the Kronenbourg beer has been added to menus permanently.
Plenty of punters have taken to Facebook in recent days buzzing about the ale being added to pumps.
One said: “Great stuff. I miss 1664 being on tap. You can’t get it anywhere now round my way.”
Another said: “Lovely lager is 1664.”
Meanwhile, a third commented: “A good move IMO (in my opinion). Kronenbourg’s a good lager.”
And a fourth simply added: “YAY.”
The latest announcement comes after Spoons slashed the price of 30 real ales as part of its Spring Beer Festival.
The annual festival runs from March 5 to March 16, offering punters the chance to try some never-before-seen international beers.
Prices start from £1.69, but some pubs may charge you £1.99 or £2.49 a pint.
Customers can choose from The Wallaby, from Australia, or the Estuary Session Ales, a Canadian tipple.
There’s also a chocolate porter from Italy and “Hey Pal” from the USA.
Spoons also recently shook up its food menu, introducing a £2.99 breakfast deal for customers last month.
You can choose from a breakfast muffin or small breakfast with a soft or hot drink.
There are also veggie options available, which is served between 8am and midday.
Meanwhile tea and toast, which comes with two slices and either jam or marmalade, is just £2.49.
The Sun exclusively revealed in January Spoons had upped the price of a host of popular drinks and menu items across its pubs.
The chain hiked prices on drinks by 15p while meal deals were bumped up by 30p.
The price rises saw the cost of a Guinness at the London and South Western branch in south west London go from £4.66 to £4.81.
Meanwhile, the price of a Strongbow increased from £3.24 to £3.39.
The average price of a meal deal at Spoons without an alcoholic drink was £4.99 and with a drink was £6.52 before the change.
But the 30p rise means they now cost £5.29 and £6.82, respectively.
Spoons said a number of drinks had not gone up in price, including all draught lagers such as Budweiser, Carling and Coors.
Boss Tim Martin said: “Wetherspoon has always tried to remain as competitive as possible.
“We hope that our prices will still be reasonable in spite of these increases.”

She confirmed the veteran singer died at 4.46am on Tuesday morning at the hospital in Broward, Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

MANCHESTER UNITED’S head of sports medicine and first-team doctor have quit the club.
The Red Devils are currently in the midst of an injury crisis with ten senior players in the treatment room.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe recently made a further 200 staff redundant as his brutal cost-cutting measures continued.
But in a move not linked to the job slashes, sports medicine expert Gary O’Driscoll and senior doctor Jim Moxon have left Old Trafford.
The Mail report that O’Driscoll’s exit comes as a “huge surprise” after he joined from Arsenal a year-and-half ago.
He is highly-respected in the medical field and is said to have made a positive impact while at the club.
Moxon departs after two years at Man Utd to “pursue another opportunity”, having previously worked at Liverpool.
Both are set to stay in their roles temporarily to allow for chiefs to find replacements.
Man Utd’s squad is thin at the moment as an injury crisis rips through the side.
Lisandro Martinez and Amad Diallo are not expected back until next season with ACL and ankle issues respectively.

Altay Bayindir, Jonny Evans, Leny Yoro, Harry Maguire, Luke Shaw, Mason Mount, Kobbie Mainoo and Manuel Ugarte complete the list of senior players sidelined.
Ruben Amorim named six teenagers on the bench for the 1-1 draw with Arsenal on Sunday in Ayden Heaven, Harry Amass, Elyh Harrison, Chido Obi, Jack Fletcher and Jack Moorhouse.
IT was a performance that would have pleased Ruben Amorim but a 1-1 draw with Arsenal does little to paper over the cracks at Manchester United.
On a day when the Old Trafford crowd protested the owners, the players stood up to show their remains life in a club that fans say is experiencing a “slow death”.
There was a lack of clear-cut chances in the opening 45 minutes as both sides goalscoring troubles continued.
A moment of magic was needed and Fernandes stepped up as he so often does.
Arsenal‘s wall was full of man mountains, but Fernandes found the power, dip and accuracy to beat David Raya with his free-kick – even if the wall was marched 11.2 yards back instead of the regulated ten.
Mikel Arteta’s side came out swinging in the second-half with their makeshift No9 up top, and it took a brilliant effort from Declan Rice to level the scores.
United were able to frustrate them and remain a threat on the counter but eventually had to settle for a point in a much-improved performance.
Here is how SunSport’s Martin Blackburn rated the United performances.
NISSAN has called time on Makoto Uchida’s stint as its CEO – with the car giant in the midst of a crisis.
According to reports, Uchida – who has come under fire after the Japanese marque failed to secure a much-anticipated merger with Honda – is to be replaced in the role by its chief planning officer, Ivan Espinosa.
The change comes as Nissan is planning a huge overhaul of its leadership – with the key aim to steer it away from the abyss.
Autocar reports the move comes as part of a drive to “achieve the company’s short- and mid-term objectives while positioning it for long-term growth”.
The change is joined by a number of other top-level management changes, with Espinosa to take the reins from April 1.
Yasushi Kimura, chair of Nissan’s board of directors, said: “Given the industry wide challenges and Nissan’s performance, we believe it is necessary as well as appropriate to change the top management team.”
Nissan is currently facing losses of $534 million by the end of March – with the car marque’s struggles first appearing in mid-2024.
Indeed, signs of trouble began in May when they asked dealers in the US to begin selling cars at a loss.
News then broke that Nissan and Honda were to expand their earlier partnership to work on electric vehicles and software alongside fellow manufacturer Mitsubishi.
But in November, they dropped the bombshell announcement that some 9,000 employees globally would be laid off, along with the reduction of production.
By the end of 2024, some company executives had disclosed that Nissan had 12 to 14 months left to survive – a frightening prospect, with their best chance of continuing being a merger with another company.
In December, the CEOs of Nissan and Honda met for official talks and announced they would officially look to merge.
But these talks deteriorated in the new year as Nissan withdrew from the deal, following Honda’s proposal to make them a subsidiary.
On Monday, Uchida, who’s led the company since 2019, announced his departure in a press conference.
He said: “I believe that clarifying the direction of Nissan as soon as possible, and quickly passing the baton to my successor is the way to take responsibility as CEO of the company.
“To this end, I have been striving to improve Nissan’s performance, however since we unveiled the turnaround actions last fall, people – not only outside the company, but also our employees – started to question my responsibility.
“The top priority of Nissan today is to break away from the current situation as quickly as possible and bring the company back to the growth track.
“It is essential to create an environment that enables our employees to join forces and work as one team in order to make this a reality.”
The news bolsters prospects for renewed discussions with Honda, raising the possibility of talks between the two being reignited.
A Nissan source recently told Japan‘s Nikkei that “the talks will probably proceed in the direction of accepting Honda’s investment” under the direction of a new management team.
Uchida did not confirm talks with Honda would be restarted following his exit.
But he did say that Nissan is “exploring every opportunity without any expectations to address a number of additional risks and transform our structure to enable our company to realise its mid- and long-term direction”.
Espinosa, though, refused to be drawn on the potential for talks with Honda.
He said: “I would refrain from commenting on speculation at the moment.
“My immediate focus is to work with the team, get them engaged and look forward to the future.”
When he starts his role, his main responsibility will be to implement a turnaround plan that aims to achieve annual cost savings of £2 billion.
Nissan recently announced plans to shut down three factories worldwide by the end of 2026.
The company also intends to reduce vehicle development timelines from 52 months to 37 months.
Espinosa will play a key role in overseeing the development of vital new models, including the next-generation Qashqai and Juke – two of Nissan’s best-selling vehicles in the UK.
This year will also mark the debut of the all-new Nissan Leaf and Micra EVs.
Additionally, Uchida recently confirmed plans for Nissan to introduce an electric city car for Europe, potentially based on the new Twingo developed by their Alliance partner Renault.
