INSPIRED WRIGHT TOPPLES LITTLER TO WIN GERMAN DARTS CHAMPIONSHIP

Peter Wright celebrated a stunning return to winning ways on an extraordinary night in Hildesheim, defeating a record-breaking Luke Littler 8-5 in Sunday's German Darts Championship final.

An emotional Wright defied the odds to topple Littler in one of the most remarkable European Tour finals of all-time, having trailed 5-2 in Sunday’s showpiece at Halle 39.

Teenage sensation Littler averaged 106.87 and hit ten 180s in a compelling contest, but it wasn’t enough to triumph, as Wright reeled off six successive legs to claim his second German Darts Championship crown.
