The series follows life one the PGA Tour, with players including Rory McIroy, Tony Finau, Joel Dahmen, Jordan Spieth and Rickie Fowler featured so far.
The first season, which premiered in February last year, covered one of the most tumultuous periods in the game’s history, when, in 2022, rival circuit LIV Golf appeared on the scene. The series starred some players who remained loyal to the PGA Tour, but it also featured players who eventually signed for LIV Golf, including Ian Poulter and Brooks Koepka.
The series proved popular with viewers, with the first-ever Netflix Engagement Report showing that it amassed 53,100,000 viewing hours between January and June 2023, leaving it 274th on a list of over 18,000 shows broadcast by the streaming giant.
Fresh from that success, on 6 March this year, the second season premiered, and it proved equally enthralling with McIlroy returning, this time as he attempted to juggle his role as one of the world’s best players with his defense of the PGA Tour in the midst of the LIV Golf threat.
It also covered the period of the bombshell announcement that the PGA Tour and the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) behind LIV Golf were engaged in talks on how to coexist in the future.
Other highlights included a second chance to experience Dahmen’s close bond with his caddie Geno Bonnalie, Fowler’s resurgent season and the moment Keegan Bradley learned he hadn’t made the US Ryder Cup team for the 2023 match.
