The PDC World Darts Championship resumes on December 27th after its Christmas break. Young star Luke 'The Nuke' Littler continues his impressive run, aiming for round four after a record-breaking victory. The tournament features several upsets, including the elimination of Michael Smith, Raymond van Barneveld, and Gary Anderson. Defending champion Luke Humphries remains a contender alongside Michael van Gerwen, Jonny Clayton, and Stephen Bunting. Littler faces Ian White on December 28th, with the winner advancing to play either Jermaine Wattimena or Peter Wright.
The PDC World Darts Championship gets back underway on December 27 after the tournament stopped for it's trademark Christmas break. There has been a host of shocks so far - with Michael Smith, Raymond van Barneveld and Gary Anderson among those dumped out - but Luke 'The Nuke' Littler remains. The 17-year-old is eyeing up a place in round four, after overcoming Ryan Meikle in record-breaking fashion, as he looks to overcome Ian White this weekend.
The winner will take on the victor between Jermaine Wattimena and Peter Wright - which takes place during the afternoon session before that - so a pathway will be clear . The Nuke is the third encounter in that phase of three matches with Chris Dobey taking on Josh Rock. Meanwhile, three-time champion Van Gerwen will be looking to take a big step towards replicating his success when he steps on to the oche with Brendan Dolan.
