“I would describe the 2025 golf season as electric,” Balionis said in a trailer for the series. “We saw hearts broken, history made, the culmination of the most anticipated team event.”

Netflix dropped the “Full Swing” trailer on Thursday, April 2, and announced Season 4 will stream beginning April 17. The four episodes will feature key moments of 2025, including Rory McIlroy’s Masters victory and Tommy Fleetwood’s breakthrough at the Tour Championship.
Additionally, the trailer previews coverage of The Ryder Cup at Bethpage Black, won by Team Europe.

According to Golfweek, Season 4 will feature McIlroy and Fleetwood as well as J.J. Spaun Keegan Bradley, Luke Donald, Chris Gotterup, Ben Griffin, Shane Lowry, Maverick McNealy, Justin Rose and Cameron Young.
McIlroy’s long-awaited victory at the Masters gave him the career Grand Slam. Consequently, he is one of six golfers to accomplish the feat. Fleetwood, who has eight European tour victories, won the TOUR Championship for his first tour title to capture the FedExCup and its $10 million reward.
Meanwhile, Bradley captained Team USA in the Ryder Cup. The Americans’ bid to avenge a 2023 loss in Rome fell short as Europe won 15-13. The match wasn’t as close as the final score indicated.
