Full Swing: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Tony Paul Detroit News The more-casual sports fan or even non-sports fan will have no problem with the project as presented, because so much of the stories pull on the heartstrings. Rated: A- Feb 28, 2023 Full Review Full Swing: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times A binge-worthy PGA Tour reality show even a casual fan can love... Rated: 3.5/4 Feb 17, 2023 Full Review Full Swing: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Alan Pergament Buffalo News You’ll likely find yourself rooting for all of the golfers in the series during the next three golf majors, starting with the PGA championship. Jun 12, 2024 Full Review Full Swing: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (4) James Delingpole The Spectator I just like seeing the clever balls going into the holes in the lovely, smooth, green grass. But maybe that’s just me. Mar 2, 2023 Full Review Full Swing: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Megan Schuster The Ringer Box to Box has done this once already, and with that formula (sorry) already in place, I don’t think there’s any reason they shouldn’t be able to continue in the same way with golf. Feb 27, 2023 Full Review Full Swing: Season 1 | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Graeme Tuckett Stuff.co.nz Full Swing is slick, attractive and moderately nutritious. We have all fallen asleep on the couch to worse than this. Feb 27, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

Moody C This was better than the tennis series. The main problem with these sports series on Netflix is it lacks good story-telling. It does do some character development but almost zero good stories. It also confirmed my feelings for Koep - big house, big trophy case, trophy wife, only into himself. There will only be one season here because the only interesting storyline which kept me watching is PGA rivalry with LIV even though we all know outcome of that battle. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 09/13/23 Full Review Movie C Loved the show, was really cool to hear what the players had to say and felt like you were with them and it was really exciting and fun to watch. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/20/23 Full Review Josh O Very well done, shows the side of Golf that attracts so many people Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/04/23 Full Review Frank M I was really looking forward to this but it lacked action and excitement. The series seems to focus overwhelmingly on the negatives... The missed putts, poor drives, etc. so many other great golf documentaries. This one is pretty boring even for a die hard golf fan that was looking forward to an inside look, behind the ropes. I hope they add some excitement and energy to the second season. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/02/23 Full Review Suffer N Had high hopes after enjoying all the F1 Drive to Survive series, but switched off 1/3rd way through 2nd episode - it soon dawned it would be a struggle to maintain ongoing interest on individual golfers, soon proven by the need to try and fill it out by giving way too much screen time to a nobody wife / fiancee discussing her wardrobe and parading around in her bikini...... there's plenty other channels for that. Rated 0.5/5 Stars • Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review lawrenceb56 This is beautifully set up and filmed really well. The storylines are exceptional but the players themselves sap interest. What is ultimately revealed is that we are dealing with some of the most boring and uninteresting people you've ever come across. Odd that the F1 series makes you sort of appreciate spoiled little rich boys and their race cars and even pull for some of them, while this effort, try as it might--can't inject personality where, it seems--there is none. The Ian Poulter and Joel Dahmen efforts gave it a good shot and the half-hearted attempts to get the LIV players to discuss anything other than the money they'd make were nice tries, but failures. There's a lot to like if you find golf interesting (I do)--but don't go looking to be introduced to the next Arnold Palmer, or Lee Trevino. These guys aren't much more than Stepford Golfers, which is nobody's fault--but man! The 3 bro roundtable with Matt Fitzpatrick's guys--or watching JT sit around the table with his vapid friends is mind numbing. Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
