Littler took a break from the oche after booking his place in the World Matchplay quarters with a stunning comeback against Jermaine Wattimena.
The Nuke was 7-2 down before sealing a 13-11 victory to set up a clash against Andrew Gilding on Friday night.
And to take his mind off the occasion, Littler decided to swap a darts board for a golf course.
However, it was hardly The Open's Portrush course — with Littler instead opting for a game of crazy golf.

The teen donned his best shorts-and-hoodie combo as he joined Sky Sports for a day on the whimsical green.
But Littler showed why he should be sticking to darts with a dismal performance.
Hilarious video footage showed him struggling to get past one hole, which involved hitting the ball through a miniature cabin.
At one stage, Littler even managed to knock his ball off the green and into some paving stones.

But just like his win over Wattimena, the world champion stayed strong and eventually bounced back by potting the hole successfully.
However, some fans felt Littler's approach was less Scottie Scheffler and more Happy Gilmore.

The fictional character, played by Adam Sandler in 1996 and in a sequel released today, is a hockey player-turned-golfer who has little technique and gets by on his gigantic drive.
One fan laughed: 'Littler holding a putter like he's Happy f*****g Gilmore.'
Another declared: 'Never seen a putter before.'
One noted: 'Mr Bean was better.'
Another added: 'Golf isn't his game.'

My boyfriend makes spicy content with his own brother – people are so judgmental, but he makes loads of cash
Ryan has insisted that the content he makes with his brother isn't 'weird' FAMILY MATTERS My boyfriend makes spicy content with his own brother – people are so judgmental, but he makes loads of cash Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A WOMAN has revealed that her boyfriend makes explicit content with his own brother. Gigi and Ryan are both adult content creators, and met last year at an awards ceremony. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Ryan and Gigi are both adult content creators Credit: Love Don't Judge 2 Ryan makes gay content with his brother Andy Credit: Love Don't Judge Ryan said that he had previously struggled to date girls in the past, as although they were fine with him making adult content, they couldn't wrap their heads around the fact that it was gay content. When the couple met, Gigi already knew that Ryan made content with this brother, and says it doesn't bother her. Ryan's brother Andy first decided to get into adult content 15 years ago, when he was living in a hostel in London, and struggling to make ends meet. He got offered £600 to make a solo video for an adult website, and said it "changed my life." After seeing the success his brother was having with content creation, Ryan asked Andy to help him out and the brothers now make spicy content together three or four times a week. Andy first told Ryan not to join the industry, as he didn't think he would be able to cope with the online trolls, but Ryan was adamant that he was going to do it with or without Andy's help. Ryan assured that although he films content with his brother its not "weird", as if they are filming a group scene, they are at opposite ends, and never touch each other. He added that one of them is usually behind the camera, to avoid physical contact. "I would say it does feel weird watching my brother sleep with other people, but at the end of the day, it's just work", Ryan told Love Don't Judge. However, he admitted that things did get out of hand once during a group scene, when Andy "sprayed his blast out everywhere." Mexico's sexiest fan and weather girl poses in bra and dressing gown as she celebrates four years on OnlyFans Ryan, who is known for dressing up as a builder in explicit videos, said that family were at first judgmental, but now that they've seen how well he's doing, they support his career choice. However, he added that he has lost a lot of friends who have spread vicious rumours about his job. Gigi added that all of her friends know that Ryan makes gay content with his brother, and none have batted an eyelid. "I've never really thought too much about them making content together", she said. What is OnlyFans? OnlyFans is a subscription content service based in London. As of 2023, it is thought to have more than 220million registered users and over three million content creators. Sex workers charge monthly fees for access to pictures, videos and more. While popular for porn, the site isn't exclusively designed with that in mind - anyone who wants to build up a fan base and charge them for it can set one up. Celebs like Katie Price and Kerry Katona are popular personalities on the platform. "Whether you're uploading tutorials, tips, behind-the-scenes footage or just endless selfies, a lot of your followers would be willing to pay for them," the company states. For every subscription that's sold to a viewer, performers get 80 per cent of the cash while OnlyFans gets the rest. It isn't limited to adult content, as it has become popular with physical fitness experts and musicians. "If they were doing it in their spare time I would think it was a bit odd, but they don't". However, the adult content maker did admit that she herself would never make content with her brother. Ryan revealed that he gets a lot of hate comments from people, many of whom criticise him for "pretending" to be gay. However, he thinks it's all worth it, as he makes £15,000 a month.

"So one way or another it will happen, or Joe will fight for the vacant title. "Tyson has made it very clear to me; he'd love that [Usyk] fight, he would love to do that fight and it'd be a big fight."
