I like what you did here. Very good.
The PGA is a 'major' event after all, and should stand on its own merit.
And the pain & suffering it will entail to not be able to wear them again.
Yeah, maybe the stress from yesterday is catching up to him finally.
Yeah, he is probably concerned about his schedule and the arraignment on Tuesday; wants to get home to see family between now and then, needs to meet with his lawyer etc.
Oh yeah, he has to play 18 tomorrow at a major tournament.
He also needs to pad that arrest window in for tomorrow morning.
He probably isn't currently driving, probably has a volunteer chauffeur; the guy that picked him up at the jail was one of the 4 Valhalla Club owners! Big money guy in Louisville, also on the Chamber of Commerce and the PGA planning committee as I understand it!
Unless I missed it’s wild they haven’t dropped all charges yet.
Gotta wait till monday, but no body cams and a questionable police dept will make this go away.
I was too until I realized the level of intellect we're dealing with. One would think the DA there wouldn't want this one anywhere near his resume. May as well have tried to prosecute Jesus for as squeaky clean and well regarded as Scottie is.
Being without his normal caddie had to really effect him.
‘Oh my God, it's Scottie Scheffler’: Eyewitness reveals new arrest details
When Scottie Scheffler was arrested outside the PGA Championship, ESPN’s Bob Wischusen was on the scene. Here’s what he saw and heard.
golf.com
"Here’s how Wischusen recalls that moment: “When [Scheffler] drove past him, the cop got very angry pursuing the car. … My impression was he was kind of running alongside chasing the car, and maybe he tripped and fell. I mean, there was kind of an outcropping or medium, you know, by the front gate. And keep in mind, it was raining. It was 6 o’clock in the morning. It was dark.”
Asked about Darlington’s characterization of the officer “attaching” himself to the car, Wischusen said, “I could see him stumble, but I did not have a very clear view of exactly how you want to categorize his contact with the car.”
Wischusen said Scheffler was moving at a relatively slow speed — “the speed that you would drive a car if you were pulling up to the front gate of a place,” he said — and before pulling over had driven approximately the 10 or so yards that Darlington had estimated.
When Scheffler stopped the car, Wischusen said Gillis was visibly upset. “He runs up to the driver’s side, and with the butt end of his flashlight starts screaming, you know, ‘Get out of the car, get out of the car’ — banging on the window — ‘shut the engine off, get out of the car. I’m a police officer.’”"
Much as expected, if this is correct, the cop created a problem with his aggressiveness, did something stupid and injured himself, and then blamed it on Scottie.

Maybe, but going OB and drubbing wedges would seem not to be a caddie thing, putting and club selection yeah. Guess caddies can help after errors to get back on track also.

If only we had a solution for this - like recording the interaction from a camera on the cop, then we could be more certain what happened.

“But the police report said…!”
Another eyewitness account that thinks the cops might have tripped and fell on his own and certainly didn’t get hit and dragged by Scheffler.
We are a day or two away from a couple of people in this thread looking really stupid.

Louisville police have been highlighted numerous times on the crime show "The First 48". Wonder if Scottie will make the next episode?
