Luke Littler revealed a late trip to the post office meant a frantic dash to Leeds before he secured a third consecutive nightly win at the Premier League.

The 19-year-old claimed a record-equalling sixth victory of the season on Thursday but arrived at the First Direct Bank Arena just under an hour before his first match of the evening got under way.
