Luke Littler, the world number one darts player, is set to host a new live show on Netflix where amateur players can challenge him for a chance to win £501,000. The event will feature regional heats open to all, with 20 players selected to compete against the top-ranked darts star. The show will be broadcast live on the streaming platform, offering fans an opportunity to witness high-stakes darts action.
The initiative comes just days after Littler secured victory at the World Matchplay tournament, defeating Gerwyn Price 18-8 in Blackpool. The Netflix show aims to engage a broader audience by allowing everyday darts enthusiasts to compete against a professional. The prize money, equivalent to over $630,000, has generated significant interest among potential participants.
The format of the show includes live matches where amateurs must beat Littler to claim the prize. The event will be streamed globally, giving fans worldwide access to the action. The show is part of a growing trend of sports personalities leveraging social media and streaming platforms to interact directly with fans.
The details of the show’s schedule and exact broadcast date have not yet been confirmed, but it is expected to be announced soon. (gbnews.com)
