Netflix’s best sports doc returns this week — and season 2 looks even more dramatic

Promotional image for "Full Swing" season 2 on Netflix.

Ask somebody to pick the best Netflix sports documentary and they may select the juggernaut “Formula 1: Drive to Survive” or perhaps the recent “Beckham” series that birthed a widely-shared online meme. However, in my opinion, there’s only one correct answer to the question. Netflix's best sports doc right now is “Full Swing”. 

“Full Swing” is an intimate and gripping look at the sport of golf, and before you tune out immediately because you think golf is “boring”, give me a chance to argue the case for this compelling sports doc. Trust me, I have no great love for golf either, and yet the first season of “Full Swing” hooked me more than almost any show I watched on Netflix last year.
