Luke Littler expressed his frustration over an incident with a fan who grabbed him while he was taking photos in Prague before the Czech Open tournament. The 18-year-old, who is in Prague to compete against Cameron Menzies in the £30,000 prize event, encountered a group of fans outside his hotel eager to meet the darts champion.
After posing for pictures with some fans, Littler was upset when one individual grabbed him as he was leaving. In a social media post, he emphasized the importance of asking instead of grabbing someone without consent. He also mentioned another fan who criticized his behavior but defended his reaction to unwanted physical contact.
This incident adds to a series of challenges Littler has faced, including receiving abuse from fans at previous events. Despite the negative experiences, Littler is gearing up to participate in the German Darts Championship in Heidenheim next month, alongside notable players like Luke Humphries, Michael van Gerwen, and Stephen Bunting. The championship, offering a prize fund of £175,000, will take place from October 17 to 19.
