PGA Tour and Champions Tour veteran Tom Pernice Jr. stands accused of multiple instances of domestic violence by his ex-girlfriend, according to Sports Illustrated.
MaryAnn O’Neill detailed multiple instances of alleged domestic abuse from Pernice, 62, who is accused of punching O’Neill in the leg, striking O’Neill with a cell phone and grabbing and twisting O’Neill’s wrists.
O’Neill, now 41 — an independent sports marketer from Boston who also worked to find sponsorship deals for PGA Tour events, including Rapiscan for the senior circuit’s Biloxi event — started a relationship with Pernice in March 2015.
