LITTLER CROWNED WORLD’S SEXIEST SPORTSMAN

04/11/2025 By Aaron Nijjar

LUKE LITTLER has been crowned the world’s sexiest sportsman. 

‘The Nuke’ beat global icons including Jude Bellingham, Tyson Fury, Travis Kelce and Erling Haaland in a poll by IllicitEncounters.com.

More than 2,000 UK-based women voted for their top 30 sports stars, with Littler coming out on top for his “confidence, approachability and authenticity.” 

Teen sensation Littler pipped former heavyweight champ Fury to first place, with Formula One-star Lando Norris in third, darts rival Luke Humphries in fourth and tennis ace Carlos Alcaraz in fifth. 

A spokesman for Illicit Encounters – the UK’s leading dating site for married people – said: “The results are definitive: women are utterly over the chiseled, air-brushed look.  

“They are craving authenticity, approachability and confidence – and Luke Littler delivers all three in spades. 

“[Littler] is the anti-supermodel sportsman. Littler’s appeal lies in the fact he’s a working-class hero who acts like a normal bloke and has a ‘pub-lunch’ physique. 

“He owns it, he’s a winner, and he doesn’t feel the need to chase physical perfection – that self-assuredness is the most powerful aphrodisiac of all.  

“While a chiseled jawline is traditionally considered ‘sexy,’ the results prove that confidence is sexier than a six-pack. 

“Littler is the new blueprint for male attraction: a man who is brilliant at what he does and completely comfortable in his own skin.” 

It caps off a dream week for Littler, who also passed his driving test first time with ZERO minors after six failed theory tests. 

World No. 2 Litttler posted on Instagram a photo of himself smiling beside his car with the caption: “Get innnn. First time and 0 minors.” 

Warrington thrower Littler’s latest off-the-oche win follows a sensational run on the board, lifting the World Grand Prix title last month and now targeting back-to-back success at the Grand Slam of Darts this week.
