Luke Littler Sends Gift to Angry Ginge After £1m World Championship Win

Angry Ginge and his followers on streaming platform Twitch were taken by surprise after darts world champion Luke Littler sent a generous gift during a recent stream.

Littler won a record £1 million in prize money on Saturday night after successfully defending his World Championship title with a 7-1 win over Gian van Veen.

The 18-year-old, who posted an 106.02 average against Van Veen - the sixth-highest in a PDC world final - described the seven-figure prize money as "absolutely life changing".

Speaking in the aftermath of his World Championship win, Littler spoke about how he might spend his latest winnings.

“I’m into football cards at the minute so I might have to treat myself to a few boxes," he said. "Just a few. Panini cards, Topps cards, anything. It’s Angry Ginge’s fault really, he got me into Whatnot."

Littler added: “You bid and they will open a box and then they say you get a Cristiano Ronaldo card. I will treat myself to that.”

On the subject of Angry Ginge, the popular streamer was gifted 100 subs by Littler on his latest Twitch stream.

Ginge, real name Morgan Burtwistle, was clearly appreciative of Littler's actions as he started singing Littler's iconic walk-on song "Greenlight" by Pitbull. "Go on Luke!" he added.

As explained on Twitch's website, a gifted sub supports a channel just like a regular recurring subscription.

Gifted subs allow viewers to give one, three, six, or 12 months of subscription towards a channel to another user, and recipients can upgrade their gift to a regular subscription.

If you want to buy 100 gifted Twitch subs, it will cost you $499 (£368) for tier 1 gifted subs or $999 (£738) for tier 2 gifted subscriptions, according to Filmora.

For tier 3 subs, there is a limit of 40 gifted at one time, costing $999.60. (£739).

Littler was recently asked if he would follow in the footsteps of Ginge and enter the I'm A Celebrity jungle.

"No, I actually wouldn’t. No," he said, as per The Mail. "I’d said I would for the right money, but I’ve been watching it now, and no, I just couldn’t. No way.

"Especially with it being like…what is it? Twenty-three hours away in Australia, on a flight, away from home, eating that stuff. Nah. Not good. Not good.

"Me watching it, I don’t think I could actually do it. No. Especially the first two trials, especially what (rapper) Aitch had to do. I said to my girlfriend Faith [Millar], "No, I’m not doing it ever. No way. There’s no way."'

The 2026 Premier League Darts will take place from Thursday, February 5 to Thursday, May 28. You can purchase hospitality tickets on Seat Unique or watch live on Sky Sports via NOW TV.
