‘What a feeling’ – Topless Steve Bunting copies Luke Littler as he sleeps with Nordic Darts Masters Trophy
Stephen Bunting’s Cheeky Celebration After Nordic Darts Masters 2025 Win
Stephen Bunting, nicknamed “The Bullet,” celebrated his Nordic Darts Masters 2025 victory in Copenhagen on June 7 by mimicking Luke Littler’s iconic trophy-sleeping pose. After defeating Rob Cross 8-4 in the final to claim his second World Series title of the year, the 40-year-old world No. 4 posted a topless photo on X, cuddling the trophy in bed, captioned, “Good morning Copenhagen! What a great feeling waking up along side this beauty,” per The Irish Sun. The pose echoed Littler’s viral moment after his 2024 World Series wins, channeling Lionel Messi’s World Cup celebration, as noted by @OfficialPDC on X.[](https://www.thesun.ie/sport/15338018/stephen-bunting-topless-lionel-messi-darts/)[](https://x.com/OfficialPDC/status/1931459075293790533)
Bunting’s triumph, which included wins over Jonny Clayton (6-3), Nathan Aspinall (7-5), and Cross, showcased his resurgence after a dismal Premier League 2025 campaign with 12 first-round losses, per Daily Star. His 104 checkout and five consecutive leg wins from 3-3 sealed the £30,000 prize, per Sky Sports. Bunting told ITV, “My doubles have been atrocious lately, but winning against this caliber means a lot,” highlighting his confidence boost, per BBC Sport. The victory, following his Bahrain Darts Masters win in January, positions him strongly for upcoming World Series events in New York, Poland, Australia, and New Zealand, per Sporting News.[
