Darts fans think they may have spotted the 'cheat code' that Luke Littler uses that nobody else can do.
After weeks of exciting darts action, the final of the PDC World Darts Championship got underway on Friday night as popular young sensation Luke Littler faces long-term rival Michael Van Gerwen.
Littler established dominance in early part of the match, taking the first four sets as he looks to avenged his performance in last year's final, having lost out to world number one Luke Humphries.

And while watching the final, fans think they may have spotted the one 'cheat code' that Littler can do better than anyone else.
Throughout the match, Littler hit a series of double 10 checkouts to take an early lead in the final, leading many to claim that he is better at hitting double 10 than anyone else in the world.
Reacting to Littler's stunning performance in the final on social media, one fan wrote: "That double 10 for Littler is a f*****g cheat code!"

Another added: "Littler on double 10, you know what’s coming, you can’t stop it."
While one joked: "Luke Littler when it's time for another double 10. Oh go on then!"
And one fan wrote: "Tell me about a more loving relationship between Luke Littler and double 10, i'll wait."
Heading into the 2025 PDC World Darts Championship, Littler was the fourth seed and the favourite to lift the Sid Waddell trophy, and his early performance on Friday displayed exactly why.

But Van Gerwen reminded the 17-year-old why he is a three-time World Champion in the fifth set, winning it to take the score to 4-1 in favour of the Englishman.
However, the Dutchman still faces an uphill battle if he is to mount a comeback and get back into the driving seat in the match.
