“The Nuke” Luke Littler Wins Big at Cheltenham Festival

Luke Littler secured a significant win in the four-figure range on the second day of the Cheltenham Festival. Known as ‘The Nuke’, he returned to the renowned racecourse after spending time with his girlfriend Faith Millar and fellow darts players Luke Humphries and Nathan Aspinall the day before.

The 19-year-old emerged victorious in the first race of the day, earning a substantial £2,500 prize. Documenting his success, he shared an Instagram story revealing his bet on the 9/1 favorite, King Rasko Grey, in the Turners Novices’ Hurdle.

Littler, a two-time world champion, wagered £250 on the race and reaped £2,500 as King Rasko Grey triumphed over Act Of Innocence (10/1), Zeus Power (50/1), and Soldier Reeves (150/1) at the finish line.

At the same event, online tipster Pro Sports Advice (Robert Heneghan) also had a major win, pocketing a substantial £50,000 after placing a £5,000 bet. Both Littler and Heneghan celebrated their successful bets from the stands.

Following his victory, Littler was seen celebrating with Luke Humphries, who had also won £3,250 on the festival’s opening day by following Heneghan’s advice. Humphries, known as ‘Cool Hand’, donated his winnings to charity.

Littler and Humphries currently lead the PDC Order of Merit with a combined prize money exceeding £4 million. Recently, ‘The Nuke’ claimed £120,000 for winning the UK Open, marking his ninth consecutive victory and setting his sights on further success in the upcoming Premier League clash.
