LUKE LITTLER will be an oche millionaire if he wins the Grand Slam of Darts on his debut.
The Nuke, 17, has earned a whopping £870,000 in PDC prize money since the start of the year.
If he wins in Wolverhampton this month, his winnings from 11 months of action will be more than £1million.
Littler turned pro in January and is 18th on the two-year Order of Merit, with £405,000 to his name.
And becoming the youngest-ever Premier League champ in May earned him another £315,000.
Playing on the World Series of Darts tour, with trips to New York, New Zealand and Australia, saw him scoop £150,000.
And with £150,000 for the winner of the Grand Slam, which starts next Saturday, Littler could incredibly reach seven figures already.
The draw for the group stages of the tournament will take place tomorrow in Tamworth.
Inside Littler's massive rise
LUKE LITTLER has taken the darts world by storm since exploding onto the scene at the PDC World Championship at the beginning of the year.
The Nuke reached the final on his Ally Pally debut at just 16 years of age – smashing records along the way.
He has then gone on to win a host of PDC events and the Premier League title – which he claimed at the O2 Arena by beating world champion Luke Humphries in May.
He also finished his first season in the World Series as the No1 ranked player.
He has joined Jude Bellingham on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list.
And the teenage titan even had to snub an invite from the WWE.
The Sun exclusively revealed that Littler is plotting to create a fitness empire.
He is also cashing in away from the Oche thanks to an Instagram side hustle.
And he’s even the face of a brand new cereal.
But he is newly single after splitting from girlfriend Eloise Milburn following a 10-month relationship.

And Littler knows he has to find his top form — and quickly — because he has exited early from the past three TV majors: the World Matchplay, the World Grand Prix and the European Championship.
The 2024 season officially ends with the Players Championship in Butlin’s Minehead between November 22-24.
The 2025 Paddy Power World Darts Championship — for which Littler will be a second-round seed — starts on Sunday, December 15 at London’s Ally Pally.
