Made by the producers of “Formula 1: Drive to Survive” and its Tennis version “Break Point”, it follows the lives of high-profile players across a season of high-stakes competition during the PGA Tour. The growing popularity experienced in Formula One over the last few years is inextricably tied to Drive to Survive, but can “Full Swing” do for Golf what “Drive to Survive’ Did for F1”?

As English Pro Ian Poulter jests about in the trailer, the producers picked one hell of a year to start following the PGA Tour. “Full Swing” documents the civil war that the world of golf is living between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf, though it has to be said that even though the LIV matter was used to spark more interest around the launching of the series, the eight episodes do not provide with much content about the dispute, and it overlooks the greater meaning and politics behind the controversy.

But going back to the series, one of the most impressive aspects of “Full Swing” is the way it captures the beauty and intensity of golf as a sport. From the lush green fairways to the precision of each shot, the series immerses viewers in the world of golf and shows us what makes it such a compelling game. The series has the ability to capture the excitement and drama of golf like never before. It is currently the second most popular show on Netflix, and golf enthusiasts all around the world are hoping for the docuseries to bring more fans into the sport, which is commonly considered on the duller side of the spectrum of sports-watching due to the long hours that are required for its play.

But beyond the sport itself, “Full Swing” is also a powerful exploration of what it means to pursue a dream. Each of the golfers in the series has their own unique story and struggle, but they all share a common goal: to be the best at what they do. Through their journeys, we see the sacrifices they make, the challenges they face, and the resilience they need to succeed.
