They added: “From a young player pushed to his limits by his demanding father, to a former golfer who’s made significant sacrifices for the love of the sport, to the father-son duo widely regarded as the greatest players of all time — they all face intense personal and professional challenges as they vie for the coveted title”.

The Sussexes’ debut series Harry & Meghan was a huge hit on the streaming platform and broke several Netflix records.
However, it has been nearly two years since its release in December 2022 and the couple have only produced one other project for Netflix.
Harry’s Heart of the Invictus, released in August 2023, failed to reach the same level of success as their debut docuseries.
