LITTLER BACKS ANGRYGINGE Q-SCHOOL MOVE

LUKE LITTLER insists AngryGinge should make a surprise appearance at Q-School next year.

World No1 Littler was reacting to comments from the 24-year-old streamer, who admitted he is not chasing a PDC Tour Card but wants to test himself at the sport’s toughest qualifying event.

The King of the Jungle explained he would head to Milton Keynes to experience competitive darts under intense pressure and against elite-level opposition.

Littler believes the YouTuber has nothing to lose.

He said: “He can throw a dart here and there. Obviously, if he gets the luck of the draw at that first stage of Q-School, he could potentially win a game there.

“If he doesn’t do it now, then you know the word he is…

“But yeah, I think he should do it.”

Ten-time major winner Littler admitted he may not be the right person to offer guidance to close pal AngryGinge should he decide to compete.

He added: “It’s not only Ginge, but so many people contact me for tips on how to get better.

“Honestly, you are asking the wrong guy — I can’t help you. I just go up there and do my thing.

“Maybe ask one of the older darts players and they will tell you. I just throw my darts.”

AngryGinge had been at Ally Pally to watch and support ‘The Nuke’ as he successfully retained his World Championship crown.

Littler has already enjoyed a stellar start to the year, having claimed the inaugural Saudi Arabia Masters last week.

The Warrington whizkid returns to action this Thursday as he bids to win the Winmau World Masters for the first time in his career.
