Luke Littler has etched his name into an exclusive statistical club after his victory at the Poland Darts Open last weekend. The 19-year-old Englishman defeated Gian van Veen 8-4 in the final to claim the title, his fifth on the European Tour. More impressively, Littler finished the tournament in Krakow with a remarkable average of 105.37.
That performance places Littler among only three players to ever record a tournament average above 105 on the European Tour. The undisputed king remains Michael van Gerwen, who has achieved the feat three times. Van Gerwen, who boasts a record 37 European Tour titles, posted a 107.58 average at the 2018 European Darts Grand Prix, a 106.67 average at the 2017 German Darts Masters, and a 105.82 average at the 2018 European Darts Trophy.
Luke Humphries is the other member of this illustrious group, having surpassed the 105 average mark twice. 'Cool Hand Luke' recorded a 107.51 average at the 2024 German Darts Grand Prix and a 105.42 average at the 2024 Czech Darts Open.
The European Tour continues on the weekend of March 13-15, 2026, with the European Darts Trophy in Göttingen. Nathan Aspinall will defend his title there, having beaten Ryan Joyce 8-4 in last year's final. The following week, the tour moves to Wieze for the Belgian Darts Open, where Luke Littler will begin as the defending champion.
