World’s top golfer Scottie Scheffler arrested on charges of assaulting officer at PGA championship event

World’s top golfer Scottie Scheffler arrested by Louisville Metro police

Scottie Scheffler, the top golfer in the world, was arrested Friday and charged with felony assault on a police officer and reckless driving outside of a PGA championship event in Louisville, Kentucky.

Scheffler, 27, was detained after he was seen driving on a median toward the entrance to Valhalla Golf Club, the site of the event, and initially failing to heed an officer’s order for him to stop, according to an ESPN reporter who witnessed the incident.

At the time, traffic outside the entrance was being rerouted after a man was hit and killed by a shuttle bus earlier that day.

A police report alleged that around 6:16 a.m. ET, Scheffler swerved into opposing traffic lanes to avoid backed-up traffic and gain access to the golf course.

An officer, in uniform and wearing a high-visibility rain jacket, stopped Scheffler and tried to give him instructions, but the golfer “refused to comply and accelerated forward, dragging [the officer] to the ground,” the report alleged.

The officer, Detective Bryan Gillis of the Louisville Metro Police Department, “suffered pain, swelling, and abrasions to his left wrist and knee” and was taken to a hospital, according to the report obtained by local NBC affiliate WAVE3.

The report also noted, “Detective Gillis’ uniform pants, valued at approximately $80 were damaged beyond repair.”

Shortly before his scheduled tee-off time Friday morning, Scheffler in a statement described the incident as the result of a “big misunderstanding.”

“This morning, I was proceeding as directed by police officers. It was a very chaotic situation, understandably so considering the tragic accident that had occurred earlier,” Scheffler said in a post on his official Instagram account.

“There was a big misunderstanding of what I thought I was being asked to do,” he said. “I never intended to disregard any of the instructions. I’m hopeful to put this to the side and focus on golf today.”

The Louisville Metropolitan Department of Corrections website showed that Scheffler was booked at 7:28 a.m. ET.

The booking information initially showed charges of second-degree assault on a police officer — a felony — as well as third-degree misdemeanor criminal mischief, reckless driving and disregarding signals from an officer directing traffic.

Scheffler was released from the Louisville facility without bail shortly before 9 a.m. ET, according to WAVE3.

“We’ll just let it all play out, that’s the extent of what we know. It’s moving pretty fast at this time, but we’ll litigate the case as it comes,” Scheffler’s lawyer, Steve Romines, told reporters after the golfer’s release.

In a statement to CNBC, Romines said Scheffler was driving to the golf course to start his preround preparations and “proceeding as directed by another traffic officer.”

“Due to the combination of event traffic and a traffic fatality in the area, it was a very chaotic situation,” Romines said.

“In the confusion, Scottie is alleged to have disregarded a different officer’s traffic signals resulting in these charges,” the attorney said, adding, “multiple eyewitnesses have confirmed that he did not do anything wrong but was simply proceeding as directed.”

“He stopped immediately upon being directed to and never at any point assaulted any officer with his vehicle,” according to Romines.”

Scheffler teed off just after 10:08 a.m. ET from the 10th hole for the second day of the championship. He arrived at Valhalla Golf Club around 9:10 a.m. ET, giving him less than an hour to prepare.

Asked for comment, both the PGA Tour and PGA of America referred CNBC to Scheffler’s statement.

ESPN reporter Jeff Darlington said Friday morning that he saw Scheffler “detained by police officers, placed in the back of a police vehicle in handcuffs after he tried to pull around what he believed to be security.”

“When he didn’t stop, the police officer attached himself to the vehicle. Scheffler then traveled another 10 yards before stopping the car,” Darlington said on ESPN’s “SportsCenter.”

“The police officer then grabbed at his arm, attempting to pull him out of the car, before Scheffler eventually opened the door at which point the police officer pulled Scheffler out of the car, pushed him up against the car and immediately placed him in handcuffs,” Darlington said.
