DARTS sensation Luke Littler has hit a roadblock in his incredible success story – as he “can’t pass”; his driving theory test.
The arrows ace has had an since first bursting onto the sporting scene with him becoming the youngest ever world champion and .
The teenage wonderkid stunned the world when he was crowned the best player on the planet at just 17 years old in January.
, now 18, has gone on to win two World Series of Darts titles, 13 PDC titles and five major titles, as well as being crowned the youngest player to hit a televised nine-dart finish.
His impressive accolades and lucrative sponsorship deals have even propelled him to a net worth of over £2million and helped him become one of the nation’s most-loved sportsmen.
But he’s been lovingly mocked by his pal Morgan Burtwistle, better known as streamer , in recent days about the one thing Luke can’t quite get to grips with.
AngryGinge – the last weekend – mocked Luke about not being able to pass his theory on national TV.
The pair made their on Friday night, when Luke’s mate quizzed him on his overflowing trophy cabinet.
Pointing to the impressive accolades sitting on a shelf next to the sofa, AngryGinge asks him: “What have we got behind us here, Luke?”;
He laughs before correcting himself, adding: “What haven’t we got?”;
Smirking, Luke acknowledges his awards, including his incredible achievement in May when he became the first person to win five nights in the same year.
The Nuke’s even managed to which took him past his own tally of nightly wins from last year, where he won a maiden title.
Laughing, AngryGinge goes on: “You get a bonus as well don’t you? We can all do the maths, Luke. You’re doing alright.”;
But then he lovingly mocks: “You can do all this, but you can’t pass your driving theory.”;
Luke, who laughs in response, previously revealed when he turned 17 that driving lessons were first on his agenda.
But it appears he’s been unable to hit the roads ever since as he continues to stall over his theory test.
Following his show-stopping display at Alexandra Palace in January, Luke, of Warrington, , said he was desperate to get behind the wheel.
He revealed that his dream car is a modest A-Class – a step up from his previous favourite Focus – and he was eyeing one up with his £500,000 winnings.
But the sportsman was initially forced to cancel his driving lessons due to burnout fears regarding his busy schedule.
He had more bad luck when in May during an exhibition appearance in Norwich.
Luke, who owns the vehicle and is driven around by his team, branded the thugs “scum of the earth”;.
His representative has been contacted for comment.
