This has caused some interesting stories within the community, especially because of the way he made the announcement.

However, he is saying that he&#8217;s taking a step back in a video on X, where he sits in front of the camera and talks about the career he has had in the past 2 years. He became the youngest Darts World Champion. He ends the video by saying he&#8217;s taking a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailybase.com\/en\/former-heavyweight-boxer-joe-bugner-passed-away\/\"><strong>step back from the sport<\/strong><\/a>. He wants to do something he really loves and then walks off, leaving the darts on a chair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The young player thanked his fans for all the support and looks back on his performance as the youngest champion in darts. However, we don&#8217;t know when the next time will be when he picks up his darts to play. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-do-you-think-they-ll-fall-for-that\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%80%9CDo_you_think_theyll_fall_for_that%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>&#8220;Do you think they&#8217;ll fall for that?&#8221; <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While most people and news outlets believed the message, they didn&#8217;t pay too much attention to the video. If you listen closely, you&#8217;ll hear Luke The Nuke Littler say, &#8220;Do you think they&#8217;ll fall for that?&#8221;. So it is safe to say that we&#8217;re getting to see him in future events. It might be hard to believe, but it was nothing more than a prank! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, after his recent loss against Michael Van Gerwen, the story seemed incredibly true and believable.
