We have seen how Netflix is venturing into sports and the impact it has had on Formula 1, its teams, and its drivers. The most popular name to come out of the platform’s series, “Drive to Survive,” was Daniel Ricciardo, who had all the fans loving him. And now that there’s a new series, this time revolving around golf’s PGA Tour, there’s a new name that’s on people’s minds. And it is none other than the star of the fourth episode titled “Imposter Syndrome” of Full Swing, Joel Dahmen.

The American, who is currently ranked 90th on the world ranking, has become a fan favorite, with several critics labeling him as likable as they come. Suffering from imposter syndrome himself, the golfer with a lifestyle without extravagance has been quoted by Golf.com saying, “All the best players, they’re way better than I am. I’ll never be a top-10 player in the world and I’ll never win majors. Somebody’s got to be the 70th-best golfer in the world. It might as well be me.”

His career has reached a new high, making him a superstar as the show sheds light on his life. And joining the long list of new fans is McLaren’s Lando Norris, a young F1 superstar, and golfer himself, who praised Dahmen on his Instagram story.

On a black background, the Briton commented, “Think everyone in golf supports @joeldahmen after FullSwing Netflix Legend 🙌”.

Joel has emerged as someone with whom the audience has been able to build a strong connection. The fans feel the struggles that he has faced and the challenges that he has had to overcome to reach where he is today.

Why was there a full episode on Joel Dahmen?

Joel is not your typical golfer, as his fellow professional golfers have noted; he is the man whose company everyone enjoys. It’s his story and simplicity that makes everyone enjoy his game. 

The show talks about how different events in Joel’s life impacted his decisions and how he got on the path to becoming a part of the PGA Tour. There were also parts of the golfer’s life, something that the fans haven’t gotten to know much about, because of the lifestyle that Joel follows.
