Luke Littler’s darts career just keeps on getting better and better.
The 17-year-old was virtually unknown this time last year, but he’s now one of the sport’s biggest stars after winning the 2024 Grand Slam of Darts.
Littler dominated Martin Lukeman to win his first ranked televised event and move up to fifth in the PDC Order of Merit.
He has since finished as the runner-up at The Players’ Championship, losing out to Luke Humphries in the final, where he added £60,000 to his value.
This now has him in fourth place in the rankings, and he is raking in the prize money.
Luke Littler: Career earnings
Littler has won a total of £618,500 in prize money from major events.
But when taking into account all of his career winnings, he has now passed £1 million.
The teenager has won approximately £1,013,500 in total.
In the PDC Order of Merit – which is calculated over a two-year period – his £618.5k bankings come from his success in Wolverhampton and his spectacular runner-up finish at the World Championship last Christmas.
Results on the European Tour, the Players’ Championship, the UK Open, the World Matchplay and the World Grand Prix are also included.
But adding that to his reward from invitational events is what takes him beyond a million.
Littler won the Premier League of Darts and the World Series of Darts earlier this year, claiming around £395,000 in prize money.

Those events are invitationals so they don’t count towards the PDC rankings.
However, by adding the £618,500 from ranked and the £395,000 from non-ranking events, Littler is now just beyond £1,000,000 in total.
It is a superb return for a rising superstar who is not even 18 yet, and he’s quickly become one of the main faces in the sport of darts.
Speaking after winning his first major ranked title in November 2024, Littler said: “I was very happy with my performance.
“The best feeling was when all the confetti came out. This is what we play for.
“The World Championship changed me and changed my performance. Now the months have gone on and I’m getting used to it all. I’m going to have to get used to it for a very long time.
“This is one of the ones I wanted to win. My major record isn’t the best, but it’s OK now. I wanted to come here and go deep. It’s even better now I’ve done it.”
