Scottie Scheffler’s arrest to Charlie and Tiger Woods: What fans want to see in Season 3 of ‘Full Swing’ on Netflix

Golf fans were thrilled to hear Netflix is bringing back its docuseries “Full Swing,” which chronicles the lives of men’s professional golfers, for a third season in 2025.The show has taken fans behind the scenes at marquee events such as the Masters and Ryder Cup, detailed the struggles of life on the road and featured rising stars in the game and their families. While not every episode is a hit – insert Ian Poulter in Season One and anything Zach Johnson said in Season Two here – the series has been widely praised by both casual and hardcore golf fans.The 2024 professional golf season wasn’t short on storylines, and there may still be more to come with the FedExCup Fall events and Presidents Cup still to come. Here are a handful storylines fans want to see in Season Three of “Full Swing.”I’m not sure what more can come from Scottie Scheffler’s arrest at the 2024 PGA Championship, but it was by far the biggest golf story of the year and it has to be included in Season Three.Sure, Rory McIlroy blew a great chance at the U.S. Open, but Bryson DeChambeau still hit one of the best shots of the year to win it. Now with LIV Golf, DeChambeau has embraced his role as the sport’s No. 1 showman and would make for one entertaining episode.From the Masters to USGA and PGA Tour qualifiers, Tiger and Charlie Woods were spotted together quite frequently this season on the course. Tiger hasn’t appeared on either of the first two seasons and I’d be shocked if he participated in Season Three, but fans can dream.Playing the 2024 American Express on a sponsor exemption, Alabama sophomore Nick Dunlap became the first amateur to win a PGA Tour event since Phil Mickelson won the Tucson Open in 1991. Later in the season, he won the Barracuda Championship to become the first player to win in the same season on Tour as an amateur and professional. Let’s learn more about Dunlap.Xander Schauffele’s father had been his swing coach for his entire life before he made a massive change at the end of 2023 and started working with Chris Como. The result? He finally broke through at a major championship and won both the PGA Championship and Open Championship. Schauffele isn’t one to go out of his way for media, but you can’t tell the story of golf in 2024 without him.The 2024 Summer Olympics were the third Games to feature golf since its return in Rio de Janeiro in 2016. This year, however, was the first Games to not be impacted by a major health scare (Zika, 2016; COVID, 2021). Fans showed out and witnessed quite a show as Scheffler overcame a six-shot deficit to win men’s gold, while Lydia Ko won her first gold after earning silver and bronze in the previous two Games.Keegan Bradley was heavily featured in Season Two and gained even more fans for how he handled being snubbed for the Ryder Cup. This year he was named the captain for the 2025 matches, won the BMW Championship and played his way onto the 2024 Presidents Cup team. More Keegan, please.Min Woo Lee and Minjee Lee are a rare brother-sister combination in professional golf. I’d be interested to learn more about their relationship and what it’s like to be siblings competing at the highest levels of professional golf. The Season Two episode featuring Matt and Alex Fitzpatrick was good, and I think an episode featuring the Lee’s would be, too.Scheffler capped his remarkable season Sunday by winning the Tour Championship to capture the FedEx Cup and its $25 million first-place prize.The 28-year-old’s FedEx Cup victory was the first of his career and raised his 2024 winnings (including bonuses) to over $62.3 million. Like Woods in 2006, Scheffler won eight tournaments, including the Masters and The Players Championship. He even won gold for Team USA in the men’s golf competition at the Paris Olympics last month.Scheffler’s seven PGA Tour titles are the most since Woods in 2007.”I’m just proud of the work that we put in,” Scheffler told reporters Sunday. “It’s hard to put into words what this year has been like for me. It’s been pretty emotional. There’s been a lot of stuff that’s gone on outside of golf. It’s been a bit of a wild year.”Scheffler’s craziest moment came in May at the PGA Championship, where he was arrested for not following police orders, booked with a mug shot and released in time to make his second-round tee time.Charges were eventually dropped, but this year, the Louisville police have been the only thing to slow down Scheffler. The birth of his son Bennett has made 2024 extra special for the world’s No. 1-ranked golfer.Scheffler’s caddie, Ted Scott, will reap the rewards too, with a haul of over $5 million.He’s the guy to beat every single week,” Justin Thomas said of Scheffler. “I don’t think people understand how hard that is to do, when you’re expected to win, when you’re the favorite to win, when every single thing you’re doing is being looked at — good and bad — on the golf course, and how hard it is to get in your own little zone and own little world and truly just quiet the noise.”Said Rory McIlroy: “We’ll look back on 2024 and it’s obviously one of the best individual years that a player has had for a long time.”“I think it is on par with those great years of Tiger’s,” Adam Scott said.On Monday afternoon Netflix announced its popular golf docuseries “Full Swing,” which gives fans a behind-the-scenes look at men’s professional golf and the lives of some of the game’s best players, would be returning for a third season in 2025.Produced by Vox Media Studios and Box to Box Films, each of the first two seasons contained eight episodes and featured PGA Tour stars such as world No. 1 Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, as well as LIV Golf players Brooks Koepka and Dustin Johnson.The 2024 professional golf season was chock full of storylines that were made for a series like “Full Swing,” including the arrest of Scheffler at the 2024 PGA Championship, LIV’s Bryson DeChambeau claiming the 2024 U.S. Open from the hands of McIlroy, Nick Dunlap’s historic victory as an amateur and the emergence of Xander Schauffele as a major champion.Details are few and far between on which players will be involved in the third season, but if the next installment is anything like the first two, fans are in for a real treat.Put faith in preseason polls at your own risk. Some teams are better than their ranking suggests, others are overrated. That’s evident in college football’s biggest game of the week right now as No. 3 Texas is rolling against the No. 10 Michigan Wolverines, leading 24-3 at halftime. Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers is rolling. He went 18-of-26 in the opening half for 203 yards and two touchdowns. His leading receiver has been tight end Gunnar Helm, who has 76 yards, six catches and a touchdown. The Longhorns defense has been a force, holding Michigan quarterback Davis Warren to just 49 yards and an interception.Despite injuries in the running back room, the Longhorns have been far better on the ground than Michigan, which wasn’t a widely predicted outcome entering Saturday. Sure, Texas was the favorite, but the Wolverines love to establish the run. Nonetheless, Texas has 76 total rushing yards on 19 attempts, while Michigan has managed just 39 yards on 10 carries. With two quarters left and the unpredictable nature of college football, Michigan still has a shot at making this a game. But that won’t happen if the passing attack doesn’t find a spark. Gone are the days of J.J. McCarthy taking snaps, so Warren or Alex Orji must step up and turn this game around. If unable to do so, the blowout could become even more lopsided.
