The nation is swept away as “Luke the Nuke” continues to wipe out every seasoned professional in his path.

And he is now 13/8 FAVORITE to win the whole thing after Scott Williams later knocked out Michael van Gerwen in a huge upset.

Littler’s dominant 5-1 win over Dolan only continued to leave people in awe of his abilities at such a young age.

The teenager is now just one win away from booking a place in Wednesday’s final and his family and friends couldn’t be prouder.

He celebrated his appearance in the quarter-finals by taking a few selfies with fans before kissing girlfriend Eloise, who was wearing the same blue shirt as him and is believed to be 21.

And Surrey beauty consultant and fellow darts player Eloise wasn’t the only one supporting the Warrington lad as he headed out to celebrate with his family.

She even posted a message on Instagram saying how proud she was of him after watching his incredible journey over Christmas, with Littler’s sister Caitlin also sharing a touching post of encouragement online.

She wrote: “The dream continues. Unbelievably proud of you.”

Littler will face Rob Cross in his semi-final on Tuesday, but he can rest assured that his win over Dolan has guaranteed him a six-figure cheque.

And he could walk home with the £500,000 first prize and the Sid Waddell trophy when the competition ends on Wednesday.

The “Prince of the Palace” is confident he too could become world champion by midweek with the former 150-1 contender now eyeing the big prize.

If he gets through to the semi-finals, he will face either Luke Humphries, who beat Dave Chisnall 5-1 in the quarter-finals, or Scott Williams, who saw off Michael van Gerwen with a shock 5-3 win.

Speaking after his win, Littler said: “It’s going to take a lot to beat me, based on my past performances at these worlds.

“I know I have the ability to go all the way.

“I know that I have a good chance, I know that I have a good feeling that I can go all the way now. Anything Luke Littler shows up.

“If I continue like this, I have a good chance. Only two games left. I’m definitely thinking about the title.

“This is the first time I’ve thought about it. That’s incredible.

“Rob is another person on the way. Obviously he won on his debut – now I’m hoping to win on debut as well.

“This is incredible. I felt confident since the first match with Christian Kist.

“I don’t want to say it, but every game I played I went one or two sets. I am a good player who wins quickly.

“I have even more experience and even more hope to go all the way.”
