Thrilling Darts Showdown: Luke Littler to Face Joe Cullen in Austrian Open Final
In an electrifying display, 17-year-old Luke Littler will take on seasoned veteran Joe Cullen in the final of the Austrian Darts Open this Sunday night. Littler, the rising teenage sensation, triumphed 7-2 over Ross Smith in the second semifinal, showcasing his exceptional skills.
Smith, who had earlier defeated Michael van Gerwen in the quarterfinals, ultimately proved no match for the young phenom. Littler’s impressive performance included an average of 105.65 and a finishing percentage of 58%, underlining his dominance.
The match was evenly poised at 4-4, but Littler then pulled away, securing the victory with a series of impressive finishes, including a 14-darter, a 12-darter, and an 11-darter to seal the deal.
Should Cullen, known as “The Rockstar,” emerge victorious in the final, it would mark his fourth Euro Tour title. Meanwhile, Littler will be seeking his second Euro Tour crown, having previously emerged victorious at the Belgian Darts Open earlier this year.
The tension is palpable as the stage is set for an epic showdown between the rising star and the seasoned campaigner. Darts enthusiasts eagerly await the thrilling conclusion of the Austrian Darts Open this Sunday night.
