Netflix continued its experimentation with sports-related content this past week with its latest golf documentary, “Full Swing,” jumping into the top streaming charts.
Featuring the biggest names in golf, including Justin Thomas, Jordan Spieth, and Brooks Koepka, the first two episodes of “Full Swing” scored for the streamer, securing two of the top 10 programs on the streaming charts last week, according to the latest Wrap Report, which highlights TV viewership trends collected from Samba TV’s panel of more than 3 million households drawn from over 25 million connected TVs, and balanced to the U.S. Census.
The timeliness of the series’ launch also capitalizes on the buzz generated by ongoing controversies around the PGA and LIV golf tours.
