The new season of Netflix's documentary 'Full Swing' is causing a public reaction, showing various moments from the past season. The biggest surprise of the past season was the American golfer, Scottie Scheffler, doing incredible things. Scheffler delighted the public with his performances and trophies, but an incident before the PGA Championship last year left a special mark.

Namely, the 28-year-old golfer was arrested by police after he disobeyed their orders, rushing to the tournament. The famous golfer admitted that after the arrest he was in a panic, since finding yourself in such a situation is not easy as some believe.
"First of all, I was freaking out because I somehow went from driving into the golf course to a jail cell and I still don't know how that happened exactly," Scheffler said.
"I don't think it ever really felt real." - Scottie said, as quoted by ESPN.
Body camera footage
Body camera footage during the arrest revealed details of the conversation between the officer and the world number 1. Scheffler told the officers that he had never been in a situation like this. The officer then asked him if he had consumed alcohol, to which the 28-year-old said that he had not drunk anything that morning, except mouthwash.

Interestingly, Scheffler then made many laugh, saying: "I try not to drink too much before I go play golf at 8 a.m.,"
Officer and Scheffler continued the conversation: "I assume you're pretty good if you're playing in the PGA."-the officer said.
"I'm all right, yeah," Scottie replied.
The officer then asked the 28-year-old if Tiger Woods is really as good they say he is, to which Scottie said, "He's pretty dang good."
The officer said he didn't know Scottie was world number 1, believing he was 'too casual' to be a top player.
The popular golfer thus found himself in an unexpected situation, but such moments can also bring comical situations.
