The Netflix Cup
The Netflix Cup was a one-off television event hosted by Netflix, featuring a crossover competition between Formula 1 drivers and professional golfers. It was held on November 14, 2023, at the Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas, coinciding with the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix.
The event brought together stars from Netflix's popular sports series 'Drive to Survive' and 'Full Swing'. It involved pairings of Formula 1 drivers Lando Norris, Carlos Sainz, Alex Albon and Pierre Gasly with notable golfers Rickie Fowler, Justin Thomas, Tony Finau, and Max Homa. Collin Morikawa was scheduled to compete, however had to pull out due to injury.
The competition format included eight holes of match play with each team facing unique challenges. This was followed by a playoff hole to determine the winner. The event was broadcast live on Netflix and was available for streaming post-event.
The Netflix Cup was met with mixed reactions. Some appreciated the innovative crossover between motorsports and golf, while others criticized it for not meeting expectations.
The event gathered 700,000 views between its live debut and its first six weeks on Netflix, making it one of the year's least-watched "higher-profile" Netflix productions.
