Littler expected 'pub players' on Netflix show

Luke Littler has admitted he thought he would be facing pub players on his recent Netflix show, which was billed as giving "amateurs a chance at life-changing money".

Broadcast live globally on the streaming platform last month, the cash was won by top women's player Fallon Sherrock.

The format of 'Beat Luke Littler' saw 24 players selected to take on the world number one in a single leg of 501, hoping to win a prize of £501,000.

The 24-strong field did include low-level opponents, such as an Australian jockey, a bin man and a Nando's manager, but anyone who was not a member of the PDC Tour was also allowed to compete.
