Fallon Sherrock Beats Luke Littler for £501,000 on Netflix Show

Fallon Sherrock defeated Luke Littler in a single leg of darts on Netflix's Beat Luke Littler event held in Manchester, winning £501,000. Sherrock took an early lead, hit a 180, and finished with double 20 to secure the prize.

The show featured twenty players of varying skill levels competing against Littler for one leg each. Participants included a garbage collector who entered from a container, an Australian jockey, a Nando's manager, a 16-year-old junior county player, and a bank business advisor from Neath.

“I have no words to describe what this means”

Pearse Mackle came closest to beating Littler before Sherrock, needing the bullseye but missing with his dart. Fourteen-year-old Jayden Walker, who had previously beaten world number two Luke Humphries at age 12, was defeated by Littler in 12 darts with a 158 checkout.

Littler had dominated all previous opponents without difficulty before facing Sherrock. The event was broadcast live on Netflix and lasted two hours and 45 minutes.

Sherrock said she had no words to describe what the moment meant and called it an enormous moment. Littler stated he could not give Walker any opportunity because the teenager is very good for 14 years old.

Sherrock was able to participate because she does not hold a PDC tour card, as the event was designed for amateurs and lower-profile players. The production was criticized for lacking sufficient talent to create the theatre the show needed.
