Jason Logan: Netflix series delivers the torment of golf in the rise and fall of Brooks Koepka
There are occasions during “Full Swing,” the Netflix series chronicling the 2022 PGA Tour season, when ardentTaking cues from the streamer’s foray into Formula One racing, executive producer Chad Mumm and his crew explained some basics to fit narratives and educate those unfamiliar with the game.
Then injuries interrupted Koepka’s reign and the major titles ceased. He contended, but he did not conquer, notably losing to 50-year-old Phil Mickelson at the 2021 PGA Championship. He wasn’t a factor in any of the four majors last season and, before departing the PGA Tour for LIV Golf, he netted just two top-10 finishes in 13 starts.
Fast-forward a few years and he’s embarrassed. He doesn’t hit the hole doing a putting drill. He doesn’t remember it was Scheffler who won the Masters, or at least he pretends not to. He doesn’t understand why he’s in such a funk, except to know that golf is forever fickle. And then, to conclude the episode, he drops the juiciest quote of all.
