They're both on nines again as Luke Littler produced an epic nine-dart finish on the Winter Gardens stage with his back to the wall after an epic start from Josh Rock in their World Matchplay semi-final showdown.
LIttler shrugged his shoulders as he took out 141 using Treble 20, Treble 17, double 15 to add yet another nine-dart finish to his collection and prevented Josh Rock from doing the same in the process.
Both kicked off with perfection with Rock sat on 141 himself for a nine-dart finish. But it is first to a finish and Littler took it out before the Northern Irish talent even got a chance. It sent the Winter Gardens into pandemonium and gave one of the best call ins again from Wayne Mardle.
"That is the second best leg you will ever see in your life": He quipped referring to the epic Michael van Gerwen - Michael Smith nine-dart finish off in the World final with the famous "I can't spake" line. Two young talents this time producing again.
"THAT IS THE SECOND BEST LEG YOU WILL EVER SEE IN YOUR LIFE!"
