Luke Littler has admitted he was a bit surprised to be facing the likes of Fallon Sherrock during his Netflix event.The Nuke was beaten by Sherrock during the event streamed live on Netflix with the top prize being £501,000 for successfully winning one leg.Littler thought he was playing purely amateur playersGettyThe idea was that 24 players were selected to take on the two-time world champion in one leg of 501.The 24 included a bin man and a Nando’s manager, but there was a slight loophole.Anyone who was not a member of the PDC Tour was allowed to enter, permitting Sherrok to take part.This is despite the fact she’s played and won in the PDC World Darts Championship before.It also saw a few top junior prospects like Scotland’s Mitchell Lawrie compete.And now that the dust has settled, Little has revealed his surprise in how it played out.Speaking ahead of the Grand Slam of Darts, he said: “Before I saw the line-up, I thought it was just pub players.“Whereas obviously when the line-up came out, I probably knew just over half of them.“Mitchell, Zach Griffiths – I played with him on the Development Tour – obviously Fallon, Katie Sheldon and a lot more.“I mean Fallon, she’s never had a Tour card, so she went for the qualifiers and she made it through. But then she wasn’t guaranteed to play – she went in on a vote.”In the end, it was a life-changing night for SherrockShutterstock EditorialLittler saw off 14 other players before Sherrock stepped upShutterstock EditorialSuccessful nightDespite Littler‘s confusion over who took part, he massively enjoyed the event.He said: “It was a very good night overall.“I think from my side it was very good. From Netflix’s side, it was very good.“I think the whole thing was probably a learning curve. For me, constantly playing back-to-back, especially in the heat, I was going off and on stage. I’m up for another one and I’m sure Netflix will be as well.“There aren’t many people who could say they’ve got their own show, and I’ve had my own show on Netflix, which is just still bonkers to me.”It should also be noted that Sherrock had to got through an audition before the public picked her to be part of the process.Littler is the defending Grand Slam of Darts championShutterstock EditorialAttention on the Grand Slam of DartsAs we approach the end of the year, there are some massive darts events.The Grand Slam kicks everything off before at the end of the month, it’s the Players Championship Finals at Minehead Butlins.And then in December, Littler will look to win his third straight world title as the PDC World Darts Championships take centre stage.In the Grand Slam of Darts, the Nuke has been drawn alongside Beau Greaves and Niels Zonneveld.He isn’t in the Players Championships, but the Ally Pally and Grand Slam are firmly in his sights.
