Luke Littler, the sensational 18-year-old darting prodigy, is currently in the spotlight as he aims to extend his remarkable form into the World Series. He recently dazzled crowds at the PDC World Darts Championship, where he successfully defended his title, showcasing not just skill but also an enviable level of composure for someone so young.
While many of his peers would typically be tuning their game or packing their gear in anticipation of the Bahrain Darts Masters, Littler found himself engaged in an entirely different kind of preparation. Instead of focusing solely on darts, he spent his Sunday evening meticulously packaging and posting various sports cards that he is selling online.
Selling cards has turned out to be a rather time-consuming venture, yet the world number one is dedicated to the task. He has kept his avid followers in the loop via his Instagram page, showing off the collection that includes signed Premier League cards and other memorabilia. Most of these cards are listed for sale on Littler’s personal eBay page, appealing to both sports fans and collectors.

In a candid post, Littler mentioned, “As people know, (I’ve) been listing cards on eBay,” alongside a snapshot of the neatly stacked cards. “First cards are the Premier League cards from the hobby boxes, got memorabilia cards and auto cards. I go away tomorrow to start the 2026 World Series campaign so will be listing cards for a few hours and sending them in post boxes or in post lockers, whichever you choose.”

He was not alone in this undertaking. His girlfriend, Faith Millar, has been helping him through the process, sharing her own updates on Instagram. She quipped, “Well, that was a mission…” shining light on the teamwork behind Littler’s entrepreneurial endeavor.

After much hard work, Littler confirmed he had completed the task before jetting off to Bahrain, stating, “And that’s a wrap.” The hustle highlights not just his commitment to darts but also his entrepreneurial spirit at such a young age.

As the Bahrain Masters approaches, Littler is eager to defend his title. He made headlines in 2024 during his inaugural run in the World Series by clinching the championship after an intense final against Luke Humphries, though it wasn’t without its challenges. The young star hit a stunning nine-darter during the tournament, a feat that underscored his immense talent. However, in a subsequent showdown, he faced a formidable Gerwyn Price, who, with an impressive average of 115.31, showcased that the competition is steadfastly fierce.

The upcoming Bahrain Darts Masters is slated to occur from January 15-16, followed closely by the inaugural Saudi Darts Masters commencing on January 19-20. These events mark significant stops on the World Series calendar, and all eyes will be on Littler as he attempts to reclaim his title while balancing his burgeoning side hustle.
