Luke Littler won the Flanders Darts Trophy last weekend. The Nuke beat Josh Rock 8-7 in the final in Antwerp. For Littler it is already his second title on the European Tour this year, after winning the Belgian Darts Open in early March.

Littler is on a particularly impressive run. In recent weeks he has won the World Matchplay, Australian Darts Masters, New Zealand Darts Masters and now the Flanders Darts Trophy.

It was already the fourth title of his career on the European Tour for Littler. In addition to his two titles this year, he also won the Belgian Darts Open and the Austrian Darts Open last year. With his four titles, Littler is now shared seventh in the all-time rankings on the European Tour. He shares that place with living legend Phil Taylor.

Van Gerwen still unchallenged at one

The ranking is still led by Michael van Gerwen with 38 titles on the European Tour. That is 29 more than his 'closest' pursuers Gerwyn Price and Peter Wright with nine titles each. Behind them are Dave Chisnall with eight titles, Luke Humphries with seven titles and Michael Smith with six titles.

The European Tour 2025 continues next weekend in Prague, where the Czech Darts Open is on the program. Humphries starts that tournament - where the complete top four of the world rankings are present - as defending champion. Cool Hand Luke' was too strong for Kim Huybrechts last year in the final, 8-1. The 30-year-old Englishman, who missed out on the Flanders Darts Trophy last weekend, will be keen on a strong performance in Prague. This year he did not win a single tournament on the European Tour and did not reach the final.

Luke Littler has now equalled Phil Taylor's tally of Euro Tour titles.

38 Michael van Gerwen (112 events)
9 Gerwyn Price (86)
9 Peter Wright (124)
8 Dave Chisnall (113)
7 Luke Humphries (49)
6 Michael Smith (105)
4 Phil Taylor (9)
4 Luke Littler (11)
