The all-new golf series,‘Full Swing,’ has made an immediate effect on the feeds of golf fanatics. Much has been speculated and talked about regarding the docuseries, which featured some of the best golfers in the world. But one of the wives of a PGA Tour golfer has revealed that the cameras need to follow them too.
PGA Tour pro’s wife has a request for Netflix
While many might have heard of PGA Tour golfer, Adam Schenk, not many know the story of his dear wife. Kourtney Schenk is associated with the sport in more than one way. But above all, she’s a regular with her tweets, and the release of the golf documentary had her tweeting.

While she explained that the docuseries was really good, it needed some updates heading onto the next season. For the unversed, Mrs. Schenk serves as the VP of Membership for the PGA Tour Wives Association, which donates to charities across the season.
The association’s work largely goes under the radar due to low media coverage. Hence, she was forthcoming in her request for Netflix, the official streaming service of the series, to have a camera or two behind the women. She believed that those who “don’t fly private and know where the best Residence Inn’s are in the US” also need some admiration.
The Netflix series is really good but I think next season they need to follow some of us around that don’t fly private and know where the best Residence Inn’s are in the US.

The tweet was well-received by the golf community, with several users commenting on the same. Here’s a selection of those tweets:
Right? Horribly inaccurate display of the regular tour guys
Also they didn’t follow them around either so I understand

I’m not saying that the Schenks are interesting enough for Netflix but you know what I mean 🤣

So I assume you are secretly rooting for the Hoosiers when they go to West Lafayette (even though for your husbands sake, you might be wearing "black & gold).

It’s ok/fine. Series could have been so much more. But you gotta love missing a cut on Friday and making it home in time for happy hour.

What is ‘Full Swing’ all about?

Considered an exciting idea right from the beginning, the release of ‘Full Swing’ will try to re-imagine the hype that surrounded F1’s popular docuseries. The inaugural season features a total of eight episodes, with most of them averaging around forty minutes of viewing time.
However, it deviates from the continuous timeline in the show, breaking up with separate golfers in each and every episode. Much of it stems from the fact that the LIV Golf Series decided to show up last year, which put the sport on a hiatus.

Some of the golfers on the show have since decided to hang up their PGA Tour memberships for lucrative contracts at LIV Golf. While they won’t be returning anytime soon, LIV defectors will be allowed to tee up in major championships this year. Will such a decision hamper the golf played out in such prestigious events?
