Luk who's back
Luke Littler has not featured in any pro event other than the Premier League since his run at the German Darts Grand Prix back in April.
The Nuke opted to skip the last four European Tour events to focus on the Premier League.
But Littler is expected to compete at the Nordic Darts Masters this week as he looks to add to his two World Series of Darts titles.
The world champion will take on Swedish newcomer Viktor Tingstrom in the first round of the tournament.
It will be Littler's Nordic Darts Masters debut after he withdrew from last year's edition due to family commitments.

Welcome to SunSport's coverage of the Nordic Darts Masters
THIS season's European tour continues with the return of the Nordic Darts Masters - and some of the best throwers are set to compete TONIGHT in Copenhagen.
Gerwyn Price beat Rob Cross 8-5 in a gruelling final to take home last year's crown.
And the Welsh superstar will be determined to win back-to-back titles following his disappointing Premier League Finals defeat to crowd favourite Luke Littler.
Speaking of Littler, the teen sensation takes part in the Nordic Darts Masters this year after missing out in 2024 due to family commitments.
He'll be desperate to make amends for losing out on the £275k jackpot after losing in the showpiece match to Luke Humphries at the Premier League Finals - someone who is also competing in Copenhagen.
Stephen Bunting, Nathan Aspinall and Rob Cross are all on the big lineup too, but Michael van Gerwen has withdrawn as he is dealing with his divorce from wife Daphne.

Thomas Tuchel blasts England fans claiming vile chants about Keir Starmer are ‘not acceptable'
ENGLAND boss Thomas Tuchel told Three Lions fans vile chants about PM Sir Keir Starmer were 'not acceptable'. Some of the 7,000 travelling supporters at yesterday's World Cup qualifier against Andorra called Sir Keir a 'c***' and 'w***er'. 2 Tuchel praised the overall support in the 1-0 win against the tiny state, even though they booed his team at half-time. He said after full-time in Spain: 'Booing is OK. "The support was amazing. Incredible. 'They created a fantastic atmosphere. "They were underwhelmed with the way we performed. "It's not that we can blame them for that. "I didn't hear any abusive songs or chants. "But if it happened, of course, it's not acceptable.' It's thought that Declan Rice is being rested with a view to starting against Senegal on Tuesday evening instead. Other unusual choices appear to include Reece James starting at left-back and Liverpool midfielder Curtis Jones being deployed as a make-shift right-back. 'They looked bored' - Roy Keane slams England's 'poor attitude' as Thomas Tuchel admits 'I didn't like' Andorra effort 2
