each golf films production is typically released at a time that matches its significance and correlation with a current major championship/event.  recently, “famous 5” premiered on september 24, 2018, just days before the beginning of the 2018 ryder cup in paris, france, which was aired on nbc and golf channel.  “famous 5” focused on a group of five european golfers – all born within 11 months of one another – who helped revitalize the ryder cup and redefine the professional golf landscape.
