Luke Littler hits the wire after failing driving theory test for fourth time
Littler revealed he had failed his theory test – a requirement before anyone can take a practical exam – for a fourth time on Wednesday.
A post shared by McLaren (@mclaren)
He scored 45 out of 50 on the multiple choice section, which was enough to pass, but only scored 41 out of 75 on the hazard perception, two short of the required mark.
He posted a picture of his exam report on his Instagram story, with the caption '4th time and counting' accompanied by a 'green feeling unwell' emoji.
Littler, who was a World Championship finalist before he was even old enough to take driving lessons, will have to quickly put his disappointment behind him as he prepares for the World Matchplay, which starts in Blackpool this weekend.
Littler, chasing the title for the first time, takes on Ryan Searle in the first round on Sunday.

‘World's sexiest footballer' Alisha Lehmann given personal BODYGUARD at Women's Euros after being trolled by vile fans
Lehmann has been criticised for her lack of game time in recent seasons 'OUR TOP PRIORITY' 'World's sexiest footballer' Alisha Lehmann given personal BODYGUARD at Women's Euros after being trolled by vile fans Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SWITZERLAND star Alisha Lehmann has been given a personal bodyguard during the Women's Euros following vile online trolling. Lehmann, 26, is one of women's football's most high-profile players off the pitch and has gained unprecedented popularity in recent times.

Despite having little impact on the pitch so far, Lehmann is causing a stir off it as her 16.8million Instagram followers try and catch a glimpse of her. Sven Micosse, a press spokesperson for the Swiss women's national team, has revealed that private security has been hired as a result. Speaking to Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet, Micosse said: "We always ensure that the safety of the players is our top priority in all stadiums. "This is organized by UEFA during the tournament, and our head of security is always on site. "After the matches, he is always there when the players approach the fans, and due to Alisha Lehmann's fame, he sometimes accompanies them a little further." Bild have reported that Lehmann is often seen near a "man in a suit" that focuses on her safety. Lehmann, who has been dubbed 'the world's sexiest footballer', has unfortunately been subject to abuse as a result of her rising profile. The former Aston Villa star has been criticised for "over-the-top" celebrations during Juventus' title-winning jubilation this season - with fans pointing to her limited involvement in the success. Lehmann played just 37 minuted for Juve since the turn of the year. Other abuse towards the social media star and pro footballer has come following her lack of involvement with the Swiss national team during the Euros. Lehmann, who was called up to the squad on late notice following an injury to FC Koln midfielder Alena Bienz, has been unfairly targeted for her lack of involvement in the tournament. 12 Lehmann was criticized for her celebrations as Juventus won the league Credit: Getty 12 The forward used to play for Aston Villa Credit: Rex 12 She previously dated Juventus and ex-Aston Villa midfielder Douglas Luiz Credit: instagram @alishalehmann7 12 Lehmann has almost 17million Instagram followers Credit: 12 Her online presence has made her one of women's football's most well-known players Credit: Instagram @alishalehmann7 12 Lehmann has come in for criticism recently Credit:

I sparred Tyson Fury, Derek Chisora & Filip Hrgovic… no one hit as hard as Daniel Dubois, his jab felt like right hand
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) JOHNNY FISHER has shared the ring with the heavyweight division's hardest-hitters - but none were as powerful as Dynamite Daniel Dubois. Fisher had just ten amateur bouts before turning professional in 2021 - instead learning his craft in the gym. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Johnny Fisher said Daniel Dubois was his hardest-hitting sparring partner Credit: Instagram / @johnnyfisher1 6 Fisher has also sparred Tyson Fury That included valuable sparring rounds with the likes of Tyson Fury and Joe Joyce. But Fisher - a guest on SunSport's No Glove Lost previewing Dubois' rematch against Oleksandr Usyk - said no one could match the power of Britain's IBF heavyweight champion. Recalling the spars, he said: "Hardest I've ever been punched, by far. His jab is like a right hand! "And it's only sparring as well, so you've got the 20oz gloves on and you can see how he can puts people's lights out with the 10oz gloves on." READ MORE IN BOXING GETTING THE DUB Daniel Dubois must be a 'crazy DEMON' to beat Oleksandr Usyk, warns Chisora Fisher, 26, first sparred Dubois, 27, in 2021 and most recently two years ago. At the time, Dubois had been stopped by Joyce and Usyk leaving his career in question. But Fisher helped the Londoner before his December 2023 bout against Jarrell Miller - which proved a coming-of-age moment. Dubois won in the tenth and final round, later going on to stop Hrgovic and Anthony Joshua in character-building victories.

He doesn't say much, he's quite a quiet character. "But you have seen the development over the three or four years that I've known him and I think it's for the better. He is fighting a guy who is crazy! Chisora | No Glove Lost: Usyk vs Dubois 2 fight preview - The Sun Sport "He's expressing himself for, I like the cheeky comedic things you're seeing at the press conferences, his personality is coming out and I think it's important for a fighter to express themselves and do that no matter what their personality is. "The freer you are, the more damage you can do and I think we've seen that with Daniel. Even the way his boxing skills have developed, moving off the line a bit. "The way he came through that Jarrell Miller fight that was a defining moment for him. There was a lot of pressure on him, he was a big 25 or 26 stone man in front of him and he's come through adversity. "I've seen good development boxing-wise and personality and I think they marry up quite well." Usyk has already done the double over AJ and Fury with a pair of points wins - in between his ninth-round stoppage over Dubois. Hardest I've ever been punched, by far. His jab is like a right hand! Johnny Fisher on sparring Daniel Dubois But it was Chisora - who joined Fisher on our panel - who pushed the two-weight undisputed king the most in 2020. And Fisher urged Dubois to replicate those same roughhouse tactics when he rematches Usyk on Saturday at Wembley for all four belts. He said: "Out of everyone I've sparred, I've sparred Derek, I've sparred Filip Hrgovic, I've sparred Fury, he wants to dismantle you the most out of anyone. "Some people spar for tech or spar to work on certain thing, he's trying to take you out. And I think that's his strength. "His strength is the ability to come forward, the punch power, the physical nature in the clinch. And you can negate that. "We saw in the first fight, yes it was a low-blow but somehow, it's very hard to do it and Derek's probably the best example of someone doing it, but roughhouse him. "Get in close, not thinking about where you're hitting just going in there, biting down on the gumshield and that takes mental strength. That's a bit more valuable than talent is." 6 Derek Chisora suffered a tight loss to Usyk in 2020 Credit: Mark Robinson Matchroom Boxing 6 Usyk beat Dubois in round nine in 2023 Credit: Richard Pelham / The Sun
