Season 3 of Netflix’s “Full Swing” is out now, and it gave golf fans everywhere an inside look at one of the wildest stories the sport has ever seen.
While on his way to his second round of the PGA Championship in May, World No. 1 and reigning Masters champion Scottie Scheffler was arrested and faced four charges, including assaulting a police officer.
It stemmed from a fatal accident outside Valhalla Golf Club while Scheffler was attempting to get to the course with a large security presence due to the accident.
Scheffler later called it a “big misunderstanding.”
Less than two weeks later, all the charges against Scheffler were dropped. And he casually shot a 66 just hours after his arrest. He sputtered a bit in his final two rounds, but he still managed to tie for eighth at 13-under for the weekend.
Xander Schauffele won his first of two majors in his career, the second being the Open Championship later that July.
