How do these cops not know he is the #1 golfer in the world?

There was some question whether Scheffler would make it back to Valhalla after being detained and charged with second degree assault on a police officer, which is a felony, as well as criminal mischief, reckless driving and disregarding signals from an officer directing traffic.

USGA Rule 5.3 states the committee can decide that exceptional circumstances prevented a golfer from starting on time. Under this provision there is no breach of rule and no penalty. It does not appear that it will be applicable in Scheffler's case since he has arrived at the course just less than an hour before his tee time.

He's on the practice tee as I type.

He's nothing special in the eyes of law enforcement. Does he think he's allowed to disrupt an emergency accident investigation where someone was killed because it was not convenient for him?

I understand both sides but he should have stopped the first time the cop told him to. Maybe then he would have been allowed to pass.

He claims he misunderstood the cops directions. Excuse me, but that doesn't usually end up with you in handcuffs......

Even after 2 holes....

If it would have been an NBA player? the cops would have given him an escort to the venue....... Listening to the video of the cops trying to speak English? Maybe the cop should take the shit out of his mouth so we can Understand him? Maybe they should move the tournament to a proper venue instead of Ville............ The course isn't very impressive and obviously neither is the city

According to the arrest citation obtained by USA TODAY Sports, the officer, Detective Bryan Gillis, was directing traffic into Gate 1 of the Valhalla Golf Course as the road was closed in both directions due to a fatal accident when Scheffler "tried to gain access to the course."


Gillis, dressed in full LMPD uniform and a reflective rain jacket, stopped Scheffler and attempted to give him instructions, but the subject "refused to comply and accelerated forward," dragging the officer to the ground, damaging his uniform pants, valued at approximately $80, "beyond repair."

Gillis was taken to the hospital for further treatment and "suffered pain, swelling to abrasions to his left wrist and knee."

Scheffler looks like me out there.

He has completely fallen apart.

Probably not needed on too many traffic details.
