Meet the Welsh teenager hoping to beat Littler

Makinley Cooper-Johnson, a 14-year-old Welsh darts enthusiast, has been selected from a pool of 24 contestants to compete against world champion Luke Littler in the Netflix series Beat Luke Littler. The winner of the competition will receive a substantial prize of £501,000, which Cooper-Johnson plans to use to become an undertaker and provide for his family.

Despite his young age and limited experience, the Wrexham native believes he can challenge the reigning champion and has received endorsement from darts legend Phil Taylor. Cooper-Johnson's family is proud of his achievements, and they will be present at the Manchester Central Convention Complex to support him in his quest to defeat Littler.
