LUKE LITTLER was drenched with a bottle of water following his Belgian Open victory against Mike De Decker on Sunday.
The 18-year-old clinched an 8-5 victory over the Real Deal in Wieze to win his second Belgian Open title.

And just before he walked over to receive his trophy, De Decker poured his bottle of water over the Nuke’s head.
The duo subsequently laughed about it while Littler attempted to wipe some of the water away.
After collecting his prize, Littler said: “I’m very happy to retain my title in front of these great fans.
“I said last year there should be a Premier League night here, and there should be!”
Asked about his goals for the rest of the year, Littler responded: “No idea. I just have to see what comes at me.
“I said after the World Championship, if I don’t win anything throughout the whole year, I’m still a world champion.
“I’m happy to win the UK Open and come back here and go back-to-back, now it’s straight onto the Players Championship events and then back to the Premier League.”
Meanwhile, De Decker said: “I’m a bit sad that it didn’t go my way.
“Luke has been a phenomenal player for probably the last 18 years, but I’m doing a good thing.
“He’s special. For a year, what he’s been doing is incredible.
“You can break him as much as you want, he’ll find something to come back and that’s what he did again.
“That’s what he did all year and he did it again tonight.”
The Belgian later shared a picture of himself pouring the water over Littler on social media and wrote: “That’s what you get for being on fire again!”
