Everyone makes the same Scottie Scheffler remark after PGA Tour announcement
Golf fans were salivating at the thought of seeing more footage about Scottie Scheffler's arrest at the PGA Championship after plans for Full Swing 3 were confirmed.
Golf fans were salivating at the thought of seeing more behind-the-scenes footage of Scottie Scheffler getting arrested outside Valhalla after Netflix ordered a third season of the PGA Tour series 'Full Swing'.
The Sports Business Journal reported in February that the series had already been given the green light for 2025.
And although the Netflix cameras were rolling all season, it wasn't until 9 September that the news was made official.
Without question, 2024 was the year of Scheffler and Xander Schauffele.
Scheffler won seven times on the PGA Tour, his second Masters title and an Olympic gold medal.
But it was his arrest before the second round of the PGA Championship that really caught the headlines.
"Scottie's arrest episode might be the best 50 minutes of all-time," one X user wrote, reacting to the announcement.
Another added: "They could do this just on Scottie's season and it would be epic."
Golf reporter Dan Rapaport, who featured in the first two seasons of the show, posted:
—Scottie's greatness
—Scottie's arrest
—Bryson's redemption
—Rory's heartbreak
—Keegan Ryder Cup captaincy
Cannot wait to run it back once again with you beautiful golf sickos.
The first season of Full Swing was generally met with positive reviews.
Primarily, the show focussed on the off-course bickering after LIV Golf entered the scene and started snatching PGA Tour talent.
Both seasons featured eight episodes, each following a different player.
The PGA Tour claimed the season one metrics showed 42% of viewers watched more pro golf on TV after watching.
But they have not released any data about the second season.
Should you watch Netflix Full Swing?
Looking back over the first two seasons there were some memorable moments.
Brooks Koepka showed us some vulnerability as he made his way back from a career-threatening knee injury.
And Joel Dahmen's story really pulled on the heart strings.
But some parts felt scripted and contrived and other golfers came across as a little bland.
I had to remind myself that the show was to get people excited about golf, especially those that don't watch.
Season two had more for the 'die-hard' fan.
I'm intrigued to see what season three will offer.
