3M makes presence felt in Netflix’s TV series Full Swing



02/22/2023


If you're one of Netflix's 230 million subscribers, you might have noticed 3M's presence in the streaming series "Full Swing."

The show follows a group of diverse professional golfers as they compete on the PGA TOUR each week, both on and off the course.

In Episode 6, the series focuses on pro golfer Tony Finau's inspirational story. The show takes viewers behind the scenes of Tony's family-focused life on tour and reflects on deeply emotional experiences from his past.

Tony's happy moment arrives at the 2022 3M Open in Minnesota. The show documents Tony's incredible come-from-behind victory in the final round, with "3M" dotting the course, and viewers watch the tearful celebration with his family.

Tony has been chastised for not having more tournament victories, so this victory is especially sweet. He then goes on to win the following week, finally putting his critics to rest.

"Tony Finau!" exclaims famed sportscaster Jim Nantz as Tony sinks his final putt on the 18th green. "The winner of the 3M!"

3M has been the tournament's title sponsor since 2019 and has raised more than $6 million for local charities during that time. The event will be held on July 27-30, 2023.
