Netflix is bringing back its popular golf docuseries Full Swing for a fourth season. The new chapter arrives just in time for fans who want a behind-the-scenes look at the 2025 PGA Tour season. This season covers big wins, major rivalries, and the intense Ryder Cup drama. The series will premiere globally on April 17, 2026. All episodes will be available to stream on Netflix. For viewers in the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, and India, the release time is 12:00 AM PT / 3:00 AM ET on that Friday. This is a standard global drop time for Netflix originals.
The new season focuses on one of the most dramatic years in recent golf history. It follows players through the highs of winning major championships and the lows of tough losses. The Full Swing Season 4 trailer dropped on April 2, 2026, giving fans a first look at the action. The footage shows raw emotions, locker room talks, and the pressure of competing at the highest level.
Season 4 Features a Shorter Episode Count
Unlike previous seasons that had seven or eight episodes, Full Swing Season 4 will have only four episodes. This is a change in format for the series. The production team decided to focus on specific, high-stakes stories from the 2025 season. The shorter run means the episodes will likely be packed with intense moments. The series is produced by Pro Shop Studios, Box to Box Films, Vox Media Studios, and PGA Tour Studios. The same teams have worked on the show since it started in 2023.

Ryder Cup Drama Takes Center Stage
The main event of this season is the Ryder Cup held at Bethpage Black in New York. The trailer shows how intense the competition was. Team Europe, led by Captain Luke Donald, managed to win with a score of 15-13. Shane Lowry sank the winning putt for the European team. However, the series does not hide the controversy. Reports and video clips show that the American crowd directed harsh abuse at European players like McIlroy and Lowry.
Keegan Bradley, the captain for Team USA, spoke openly about the loss. He described the experience in very harsh terms.
“It’s an F. You’ve got to go and win that and this grade’s different.”
He later admitted that the Ryder Cup was the “darkest time of my life” in an interview with PGATour.com. This kind of honest reaction is what the Full Swing series is known for. CBS Sports golf analyst Amanda Balionis also appears in the trailer. She sums up the season perfectly.
“I would describe the 2025 golf season as electric. We saw hearts broken, history made.”
The series gives fans a look at the pressure these athletes face during team competitions. It shows the difference between winning a personal trophy and representing your country.
