Darts Rivalry Heats Up: Littler and Van Veen Set for Potential Rematch
The world of darts is abuzz with the possibility of a rematch between Luke Littler and Gian van Veen, following their intense encounter last week. The two players could face off again in Brighton, depending on the outcome of their respective quarter-final matches. Van Veen had defeated Littler in a fiery match, which saw the world number one celebrate prematurely, prompting a heated exchange between the two. The Dutchman described Littler's behavior as 'out of order' and the two players had a tense handshake after the match. The incident has sparked a debate about the level of needle in the game, with some players suggesting that it is not necessary. Meanwhile, Luke Humphries has expressed sympathy for Littler, but believes that the incident will be forgotten in a couple of weeks. The Premier League Darts season continues with Night 10 in Brighton, where Van Gerwen will face Van Veen, and Humphries will take on Clayton. The top four players will progress to Finals Night at The O2 in London on May 28.
