Luke Littler’s incredible net worth rose again over the weekend as the 18-year-old landed another major title as he won the UK Open to pocket a six-figure prize pot
Luke Littler’s staggering net worth rose again over the weekend after he landed a six-figure winner’s prize for his UK Open triumph.
The 18-year-old has taken the sporting world by storm and his stock continued to grow after he landed his fifth PDC major title in 10 months. Littler beat James Wade 11-2 to claim the UK Open and see his Order of Merit prize money grow as well.
Littler is the World No.2 following an incredible 15 months since bursting onto the scene at the World Darts Championship at Ally Pally. ‘The Nuke’ won £200,000 for finishing as runner-up to Luke Humphries in his first massive payday.
Since then, Littler has taken his Order of Merit earnings to £1,248,500 after taking home £110,000 for winning the UK Open. His success at the oche and endorsements have seen the Nuke reportedly rack up a net worth of more than £1.6million.
Littler won a combined £395,000 for winning the Premier League and World Series of Darts events before he landed a mammoth £500,000 payday for winning the World Darts Championship after beating Michael van Gerwen in the final in January.
The Nuke’s net worth is only set to grow as his darts success enhances his popularity and marketability.
His success at the beginning of the year has also seen him emerge as one of the favourites to land the BBC Sports Personality of the Year.
Littler’s Order of Merit prize money will also climb over the coming months. The Order of Merit is based on prize money from the previous two years, with Littler’s grand entrance coming 15 months ago in the World Darts Championship.
The teenager has the remainder of 2025 to continue to grow his ranking rather than defend it, like current world No.1 Luke Humphries will have to do with his first major success in the 2023 Grand Slam celebrating its two-year anniversary in October.
Littler’s current endorsements see him boast partnerships with Xbox, boohooMAN, KP Nuts and Target Darts, as well as appearing in adverts for the YouTube group Sidemen and on the revamped TV game show Bullseye.
