World champion Luke Littler is eliminated from the World Grand Prix after a shock first-round loss to Luke Woodhouse in Leicester. Littler, looking to defend his title, falls at the earliest stage of the tournament, ending his run unexpectedly.

Both outlets describe the result as a major upset, with the defeat coming before Littler can make progress in the event. While the reporting focuses on the same outcome and venue, the available details are limited in both sources, with no additional information provided about the match statistics, scoreline, or factors behind the performance. The common theme across coverage is that Littler’s title defence ends abruptly in a single defeat to Woodhouse.
