Luke Littler has been the most dominant player in darts over the past three years, winning titles, hitting nine-darters, and making history along the way.
He's beaten by only a handful of players in 2026, yet he's about to take part in a competition that looks easy on paper but could be more challenging than it seems.
‘Beat Luke Littler’: Netflix event details, format, and how to watch
On Oct. 30, PDC World #1 Luke Littler will be playing in a streamed event where he takes on 20 amateurs/competitors who will attempt to do something few pro players have done in the PDC this year: beat Luke Littler in a darts match.
A prize pot of £501,000 is available for challengers to compete for.

It's expected that the early competitors of the event will be less-skilled players, and that the players' skill levels will increasingly get better as more players are introduced.
The competitors were chosen by the event organizers in an audition-style event that took place in recent months, which allowed them to narrow down which 20 people would get a shot at beating 'The Nuke.'
There will be a live crowd at the event, with tickets being sold online.
Action will start at 7 PM local time in the UK, which is also when the event will begin to be streamed on Netflix worldwide.
Each competitor will get to play one single leg of 501 against Littler.
Expect the unexpected on this night, and don't think we won't see Littler get pressured by some of the players he'll be facing during the competition.
