PGA Tour Announces Pairings for F1 Mashup in Netflix Cup
The PGA Tour has announced the player pairings for its mashup with F1 and the Netflix Cup.
In October, the Tour announced that several PGA Tour pros would pair up with the biggest names in F1 for the Netflix Cup, the platform’s first-ever live sports event that will be played at Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas.
It appears Rickie Fowler will be paired with Lando Norris, Justin Thomas will be playing with Carlos Sainz, Collin Morikawa has Pierre Gasly, and Max Home will play with Alex Albon.

The event will be an 18-hole competition played in a Match Play format and aims to take advantage of what have been Netflix’s two most successful sports series in history: Full Swing, which explored the lives of professional golfers and their stories on and off the course, and Formula 1: Drive to Survive, which took the same premise but applied it to F1 racing.
The event is set to stream live on Netflix at 3 p.m. PT / 6 p.m. ET on Tuesday, November 14th.
