A few days ago, Netflix, the PGA Tour, and all major tournaments for the same came together to announce a docuseries. In what might be another unique take on the sport, the organizations involved are ready to get up close and personal. Many big names on the PGA Tour have already committed to this, making it one of the most anticipated projects.
It goes without saying that the documentary and what it brings along will slightly alter what goes on during events. The crew will apparently have access while on the course and will provide fans with a new perspective of the tour. What one also anticipates, of course, are all the new people who might be introduced to the game.
Having said that, let’s take a look at how people have been reacting to the current Netflix-PGA Tour era.

I don't care what anyone says, Torrey Pines is beautiful. I really enjoyed walking it last year during the @usopengolf.

Wait til the folks from PV Beach leave all of that footage on the editing room floor. No way Monahan lets anything controversial in.
