During a interview, when quizzed about any potential switch-up of his own entrance tune, Littler said: "I don't think I will." Even when probed with the example of Humphries' change, he added: "Maybe in five or ten years years I might have a change, but for now the crowd love it and so do I."

Littler further elaborated on the significance of the walk-on moment for darts professionals. Talking about the music, he said: "The walk-on is a big factor in your game.

"When you walk-on you see all the fans, you get to sign stuff for them, see your friends and see your family. With anyone's walk-on it gets the crowd going, for myself, it gets the crowd on your side and you are just ready to go then."

Having reached the final at the age of 16 years old last year, the now 17-year-old will be one of the favourites to win the World Championship next month. His ascent from little known teenager to one of the country's most exciting young sports stars is still fresh in the minds of darts fans.

His performances in the Grand Slam were particularly breathtaking, inflicting a huge defeat on Jermaine Wattimena in the quarter-final, before showing unbelievable resilience to see off Gary Anderson 16-15 in one of the competition's greatest matches.

Littler's crushing victory over Lukeman was particularly emphatic, as he dropped the first two legs before winning 16 of the next 17 legs to lift the trophy. Unfortunately for his rivals, he has not grown tired of winning just yet.

After his victory, he said: "I was just very happy with my performance. The best feeling was when the ball of confetti came out. This is what we play for and the big titles we collect.

"The World Championship changed me, changed my family, but now the months have gone on and I'm just getting used to it all. I'm going to have to get used to it for a very long time. This is one of the ones I wanted to win. Obviously my major record isn't the best so it's OK now.

"I just wanted to come here, go deep and it just shows them I'm still here. How will I celebrate? I'll probably just go home, play on my Xbox."
