Luke Littler served up a darting masterclass during his quarter-final clash against Jermaine Wattimena at the Grand Slam in Wolverhampton.
Littler recorded the biggest margin of victory in Grand Slam history when he beat Wattimena 16-2, confirming his fourth major TV semi-final appearance in the process.
Speaking to Sky Sports after the win, Littler said: “I felt very confident coming into tonight, I just thought to myself it’s little bursts. ‘First to five break, first to five break.’
“I played so well, I’m so happy. Fair play to Jermaine I was just too good tonight.”
He continued: “When you’re playing that good you feel it coming. Every time I go for a 180 they expect it [a nine-darter].
“As a player you do feel it coming, [got to] take time but hopefully it does come.”
