The Netflix Cup, a live sports event, will make its debut on Tuesday, Nov. 14 at Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas. It will include players from two of Netflix’s most watched sports shows, “Full Swing” and “Formula 1: Drive to Survive.” The two pairings will pit Spanish racer Carlos Sainz and PGA TOUR player Justin Thomas against British-Belgian racer Lando Norris and PGA TOUR player Rickie Fowler; additionally, Thai-British driver Alex Albon and PGA TOUR player Max Homa will face French driver Pierre Gasly and PGA TOUR player Collin Morikawa.
The show will be hosted live by comedian Bert Kreischer, NFL legend Marshawn Lynch, PGA TOUR player Joel Dahmen, and sportscaster Kay Adams. The teams are competing for the first-ever Netflix Cup title. Beginning the week of the inaugural Formula 1 Heineken Silver Las Vegas Grand Prix, “The Netflix Cup” will take place.
How to Watch
On Tuesday, Nov. 14, starting at 6 p.m. ET, “The Netflix Cup” will be streamed live on Netflix and made available on the platform after the event.
Format
Match play will be played over eight holes, with some unexpected challenges, for each of the four teams. The best team from each foursome will play in a playoff hole to determine the winner after the match play. Every player will tee off on every hole in a scramble match. Both players will hit from the same place after choosing one of their drives, and they will continue this process until they have completed every hole. The hole is won by the team with the lowest score.

Carlos Sainz (Scuderia Ferrari) and Justin Thomas vs Lando Norris (McLaren Racing) and Rickie Fowler.
