Ahead of his semi-final clash against former winner Rob Cross, Littler believes he is capable of going all the way.
He told Sky Sports: “I’ve felt confident ever since the Christian Kist game when I hit the 106 and I've gone back-to-back ton-plus averages, but I think it's more about the doubles, especially in the set play.
“I would have thought I'd be playing Gezzy (Gerwyn Price) or (Gary) Anderson but it wasn't to be. Brendan was just another opponent in my way. I've brushed him aside now and into the semi-finals.”
Littler continued: “Cross came back really well today [from 4-0 down to Chris Dobey] and I don't want to jinx it, but every game I've played I've gone two sets up or one set up. I'm good at getting off the mark quickly.
“I know I've got the ability to go all the way but if it's not meant to be then it's not meant to be. Whatever Luke Littler turns up, then it is what it is.
“I know I've got a good chance and a good feeling I can go all the way. I didn't like waking up at 8am this morning so I'm glad I can play in the evening! I've got the experience and even more experience now so I can go all the way.”
