Luke Littler has revealed he now has a 'new way of living' after becoming a darts professional on the PDC Pro Tour.
The 17-year-old received a two-year tour card to play on the Pro Tour even before his exploits at the 2024 World Championship, through his performances on the Development Tour.
'The Nuke' reached the final of that event before losing 7-4 to Luke Humphries, and his run elevated him into the top 32 in the world.

Since then, Littler has embarked on his debut Premier League campaign, which takes place over 17 weeks including a grand final.
He also won the first Players Championship event of the season in Wigan, beating Ryan Searle 8-7 in a thrilling final.
Speaking to The Times, the 17-year-old admitted that he has had to make one adjustment to his daily routine - and kebabs are off the menu.

He explained: "It's not seen as a good thing [fast food]. Darts players get what we want, really.
"My manager said, 'When you finish, it could be 11 or 12 [at night], it's all fast food'.
"So I've got to look after myself, eat before I play. When I've finished, even if I stay up to whenever, I just won't eat. This is my new way of living."
Speaking to SPORTbible earlier this month, Littler revealed that he otherwise hadn't had to make too many changes to his daily routine as he adapts to a professional darts lifestyle for the first time in his young career.

He said: "When I'm at home, it's the same - when I've got a day off, I just play my Xbox, as everyone knows by now.
"Then I just speak to my friends and just get on with the day. No-one [other players] has really given me any advice - we all just get on with it."
