这位来自沃灵顿的 17 岁选手在周五晚上创造了历史，击败三届冠军迈克尔·范格文 (Michael van Gerwen)，夺得 2025 年世界锦标赛冠军，成为最年轻的夺冠者。

Teenage darts sensation Luke Littler has created history by becoming the youngest ever world champion – and he still can’t even buy an alcoholic drink.

少年飞镖明星卢克·利特勒 (Luke Littler) 创造了历史，成为有史以来最年轻的世界冠军，但他仍然连一杯酒精饮料都买不起。

The 17-year-old from Warrington crushed three-time winner Michael van Gerwen to clinch the 2025 World Championship on Friday night.

这位来自沃灵顿的 17 岁选手于周五晚上击败了三届冠军迈克尔·范格文 (Michael van Gerwen)，夺得了 2025 年世界冠军。

His journey began 14 years ago when he first threw magnetic darts as a toddler and imitated Raymond van Barneveld’s famous celebration after he won his 2007 world title.

他的旅程始于 14 年前，当时他还是个小孩，第一次投掷磁性飞镖，并模仿雷蒙德·范·巴内维尔德 (Raymond van Barneveld) 赢得 2007 年世界冠军后著名的庆祝动作。

But it has been in the last 13 months that Littler has catapulted himself to the top of the sport, breaking boundaries that seemed impossible.

但在过去 13 个月里，利特勒将自己推上了这项运动的顶峰，打破了看似不可能的界限。

He burst on to the scene at the 2024 tournament as a 16-year-old nobody had heard of, making it to the final on debut before losing to world number one Luke Humphries.

他以一个无人知晓的 16 岁少年的身份在 2024 年锦标赛上崭露头角，首次亮相就进入决赛，但输给了世界排名第一的卢克·汉弗莱斯 (Luke Humphries)。

By the time the 2025 tournament started, he was a household name, having transcended the sport and brought a whole new audience to it.

到 2025 年锦标赛开始时，他已经成为家喻户晓的人物，超越了这项运动的范畴，并为这项运动带来了全新的观众。

His performance at last year’s tournament opened doors for him, but it has been his displays at the oche that have seen him barge through them, proving the kebab-loving, Xbox-playing teenager is a serious talent.

去年比赛中的表现为他打开了大门，但正是他在 Oche 上的表现才让他冲破了大门，证明了这位热爱烤肉串、玩 Xbox 的少年是一位真正的天才。

Littler, an avid Manchester United fan and devoted follower of rugby league side Warrington Wolves, won an incredible 10 titles on his debut year, including the Premier League and Grand Slam of Darts, and took his earnings to over £1million.

利特勒是一位狂热的曼联球迷，也是橄榄球联盟球队沃灵顿狼队的忠实追随者，在他的首个赛季就赢得了令人难以置信的 10 个冠军，包括英超联赛和飞镖大满贯，他的收入超过了 100 万英镑。

But that has been dwarfed by his income away from the sport as his profile exploded.

但随着他的知名度激增，他远离这项运动的收入就显得相形见绌了。

He finished second in the BBC Sports Personality of the Year, was the UK’s most searched athlete of 2024 and appeared on the Jonathan Ross Show and on the front of Forbes magazine.

他在 BBC 年度体育人物中排名第二，是 2024 年英国搜索量最高的运动员，并出现在乔纳森罗斯秀和福布斯杂志的封面上。

And he has backed up all that hype by becoming a teenage world champion at Ally Pally.

他通过成为 Ally Pally 的青少年世界冠军来支持所有这些炒作。

Phil Taylor is widely regarded as the greatest ever darts player and, with 16 world titles, he rightly stands alone.

菲尔·泰勒 (Phil Taylor) 被广泛认为是有史以来最伟大的飞镖运动员，拥有 16 个世界冠军，他理所当然地是独一无二的。

But the picture might be different in 20 years – when Littler will not even be 40.

但 20 年后，情况可能会有所不同——那时利特勒还不到 40 岁。
