Sherrock stuns Littler to win Netflix darts jackpot

Fallon Sherrock beat Luke Littler to claim a £501,000 ($671,089) prize in a live Netflix darts special on Friday, producing a dramatic upset in front of a global audience at Manchester Central. Sherrock finished from 43 on double top to win a single leg of 501 against Littler, ending the event after 14 previous challengers had failed to beat the two-time world champion. The 32-year-old from Milton Keynes won the bull-off to earn the throw and produced a 15-dart leg under intense pressure, with the format designed to conclude as soon as a challenger defeated Littler. Her winning dart sparked celebrations inside the arena as Sherrock, one of the most recognisable players in women’s darts, secured the biggest prize of her career. “Honestly I can’t put it into words how I feel, especially with Rory being here,” Sherrock said during an on-stage interview with presenter Gary Lineker, referring to her son. “It’s the first time he’s been to anything. It was lovely. Sorry
