It seems that some of the negative reviewers didn't quite understand what this show is about. That's their loss. As an avid gofer, I was looking forward to this show with great anticipation and, trust me, it did not disappoint. Over the course of the episodes, we are taken into the daily lives of a number of players and are afforded a behind the scene look that is unbelievably illuminating.
I'm sure many folks dream of fame and fortune in the field in which they have a genuine passion. How many little leaguers have dreamt of making it to the majors; gymnasts dreaming of Olympic gold? This series may very well make you rethink your aspirations.
Yes, their definitely is fame and incredible fortune. Mansions and private jets and world travel are a way of life for the most successful, but, their is also a never-ending quest to remain at the top' to be successful or as Brooks Keopka says 'Win or go home'. One can almost palpably feel the pressure these guys are under to perform. There are no participation trophies on the pro tour. You miss the cut, you go home without any money. A missed putt at your local muni may cost you a $2 Nassau bet with your buddies. Now imagine if this missed putt means your entire season is thrown into turmoil.
On any level, golf is a wonderful, exciting and challenging pastime., but, it can also be extremely frustrating and heartbreaking. Now imagine if this is how you make your living. Every good thing and every negative aspect of the game is magnified to an unbelievable level, but, as humans do, we all keep chasing our dreams.
Whether you are a golf fan or not or just a fan of human nature, you will not be disappointed with this series.
