Curious to see how this performs - I love the combination of two of my favorite shows on Netflix in one.  Glad to see Rickie & Max are a part of it as well!

Will you watch?

Very excited for this. Hoping I can watch it live, but glad to see a combination of two of my favorite sports with some awesome personalities to boot. Now we just need to get Rickie in an F1 car...

I’ll probably forget that it will be on TV.  Maybe I’ll see a reminder here and if I don’t have anything better to do I’ll turn it on.  Overall: not something of great interest.

It is weird that with the Red Bull and Taylormade partnership that neither Checo or Verstappen is participating, but hey, Alpha Tauri represents!

I'm not watching live, maybe I'll follow along somewhere else, but these kind of events have outlived their entertainment value for me personally.

Personally, I'd expect Albon to do the best out of the F1 guys, considering he's dating Lily Muni, LPGA pro,  so guy probably has a bit of actual game. I'd assume Lando gets paired with Rickie, Albon gets Max, Gasly gets Morikawa and Sainz and JT.

This appears to be akin to a pro-am, from what I've seen so far.  I have zero interest in seeing anything from the ams.  I never attend a Wednesday of a PGAT event for the same reason.  

But ... any Max Homa content sounds awesome so I'll check it out

I'd be afraid the viewing rates would go up every hole.

The short answer is no. This, like the TGL, is basically giggle golf. There is still golf to watch on tv as the Euro's basically continue their season while the PGATour restarts the first week of January.

This was difficult to watch.  I started watching it last night and made it thru the first hole and had to move on.  It was poorly put together and the commentary was lackluster.

It really felt like Netflix just tried to add as many famous people to it as possible with no direction.  The first pairings with JT and Fowler, both their partners stopped the ball from moving and they only called it on one of them but even that wasn't determined before they were moving on.

Agreed it was a bit difficult to watch but appreciate the attempt - as suspected, this wasn't really targeting golf nuts but a more general audience (including the F1 fans).  

Not going to lie, I was a bit worried about someone getting injured on the first "speed hole"...have to imagine the F1 sponsors weren't too excited about their drivers hoping into a moving golf cart a couple days before the GP.  🤣
