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."

Netflix acquired additional footage of Scheffler's arrest, including bodycam footage.
"I'm terribly sorry. I'm just trying to get to my tee time. I'll keep my arms back there, I promise," Scheffler said as he was handcuffed.
Other footage shows Scheffler asking someone to "please help" him, and he asked another officer if they were "able to just talk for a second."
"Are you guys aware that I'm playing in the golf tournament?" Scheffler added. Apparently, one officer was not.
"I assume you're pretty good if you're playing in the PGA," an officer said.
Scheffler humbly replied, "Yeah, I'm all right."
"I'll be honest. I didn't think this was a position I'd ever be in," Scheffler told an officer on his way back to Valhalla.
"Usually, people never do," the officer replied.
Scheffler even cracked a joke that he only wanted mouthwash, as "I try not to drink too much before I go play golf at 8 a.m."
