Littler understands criticism of darts show: 'Thought it would only be pub players'

In the event 'Beat Luke Littler', 24 players faced off against the reigning champion, with the first amateur to win a leg earning over half a million euros. The show, streamed on Netflix, featured not only amateurs but also Fallon Sherrock, a seasoned player who had never held a PDC Tour card. Sherrock managed to win a leg against Littler, leading to criticism of the event's format. Littler expressed surprise at the level of competition, having expected only pub players. Despite the backlash, he viewed the event positively and is open to a sequel, highlighting the unique experience of having a show on Netflix. Littler is currently preparing for the Grand Slam of Darts, his last major tournament before defending his title at the World Championship.
