Full Swing and Tour De France: Unchained to Return in 2025 on Netflix

As a lifelong sports enthusiast and someone who has spent countless hours glued to my television set, watching every swing, shot, and stride that athletes from around the world take, I can confidently say that Netflix’s latest offerings – Full Swing and Tour De France: Unchained – have truly elevated my viewing experience.


Lately, Netflix has become a veritable goldmine for sports enthusiasts, offering documentaries that transport you on a thrilling odyssey through the ups and downs of the athletic field, delving into stories of triumph and revealing hidden truths behind iconic events. Among its much-discussed productions, Full Swing and Tour De France: Unchained have been given a fresh lease of life with new seasons announced not long ago.

In March of this year, Netflix debuted the second season of Full Swing, while Tour De France: Unchained’s second season was released in June. Here’s a rundown of details regarding both shows and their potential third seasons.

In partnership with Netflix and the Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA) Tour, a documentary series titled “Behind-the-Scenes on the PGA Tour” was launched, offering an exclusive look at the players and tournaments of the PGA Tour. This series, produced by Vox Media Studios and Box to Box Films, premiered in February 2023 and returned for its second season in March 2024.

Over the past few years, a series resembling Drive to Survive for the PGA has delved into the thrilling victories and challenging moments at the four premier tournaments: the Masters, the PGA Championship, the U.S. Open Championship, and The Open Championship. Notably, some of its main characters have both on-course successes and personal lives, as evidenced by the inclusion of Geno Bonnalie’s wedding in the latest season.

According to multiple sources from What’s On Netflix, it appears that the third season has been in the works since early 2024 and might be released as early as 2025.

The PGA Tour not only manages professional golf tours across North America but also controls a significant number of events on its annual top-tier tour, in addition to the PGA Tour Champions, Korn Ferry Tour, PGA Tour Canada, PGA Tour Latinoamérica, and the now-defunct PGA Tour China.

Situated in a suburb southeastern to Jacksonville, Florida, Ponte Vedra Beach is home to the PGA Tour’s main office. This non-profit organization, initially founded by the American Professional Golfers Association, resides here.

As a passionate cycling enthusiast who has followed the Tour de France for years, I can confidently say that the upcoming television documentary series promises to offer an unprecedented behind-the-scenes look at one of the world’s most prestigious races. Having been captivated by Netflix’s Formula 1: Drive to Survive, I eagerly anticipate the similar format and production quality that this new show is set to deliver. The unique perspective on the lives and struggles of the cyclists participating in the Tour de France will undoubtedly make for compelling viewing, providing insights into the world of professional cycling that even long-time fans may not have previously been privy to. I can’t wait to see what this series has in store!

In simple terms, Unchained, together with Box to Box Films and Quad, reported on the 2022 Tour de France, following a compact team of cyclists and their squads. The initial season of this coverage was made available in June of last year. Currently, France Télévisions and Netflix hold joint distribution rights for this series.

As a dedicated fan of gripping dramas, I can’t help but feel thrilled about the recent developments surrounding my favorite show. Having binge-watched the first season and eagerly awaiting the conclusion of the second, I was overjoyed to learn that the streaming giant has just released the second season consisting of eight captivating episodes. The anticipation for more has been building up since the summer, as production on Season 3 has been underway. To make matters even more exciting, Netflix France took to their social media platforms to confirm the renewal of Tour de France: Unchained Season 3. With my own experiences of the highs and lows that come with following a series over its lifespan, I can confidently say that I eagerly await the continuation of this enthralling story.
