NEW DELHI: In a series of events as dramatic as any in golf history, world number one Scottie Scheffler was handcuffed and arrested on Friday outside the PGA Championship at Valhalla. The incident occurred after Scheffler allegedly dragged a police officer with his car while trying to navigate around a traffic control outside the tournament venue.
Scheffler, 27, was charged with felony assault on a police officer, criminal mischief, reckless driving, and disregarding signals from an officer directing traffic. He was detained by Louisville Metro police after driving onto a curb in an attempt to bypass a prior accident at the Valhalla entrance, an accident that tragically resulted in the death of pedestrian John Mills.
