Luke Littler Confirms His Stance After Germany Boycott Threat
Luke Littler has made a big decision on whether he will compete in Germany after threatening to boycott events in the country.
Littler pulled out of the European Darts Grand Prix in May after receiving hostile receptions from German crowds.
He was booed on the Premier League night in Berlin and again at the German Darts Grand Prix in Munich.
After being jeered in Munich, the 18-year-old took to social media to voice his frustration before claiming that he would not play in Germany until October for the European Championship in Dortmund.

"Shouldn't have been in Munich but had to play anyway. Next one in Germany for me is Dortmund [in October] and I am glad to say that," he wrote on Instagram before quickly deleting it.
Littler, however, returned to Germany when he teamed up with Luke Humphries at the World Cup of Darts in June.
But his time in Frankfurt was short lived as England were knocked out by Germany in the quarter-finals.
Despite threatening to boycott events in Germany, Littler is set to compete in the country for the German Darts Championship in Hildesheim.
The PDC have confirmed player entries for European Tour Events 13-14, which includes 'The Nuke' for ET14 in Germany.
The 2025 European Tour season concludes with the German Darts Championship from October 17-19.
