There have been no posts about the situation at the PGA tournament yesterday. First of all and most importantly, condolences to the family of the victim of the shuttle bus accident.

That being said, even though the facts aren't all known, I'll pose this question for speculation:

Scottie Scheffler----master criminal or victim of an overly exuberant police officer?

Poking the bear GE!

I was thinking the same thing. My take....whether you think it was acme dacme security or a LEO, when a human being 'attaches' himself to your vehicle....you dont pull off, you stop! That part is not in dispute. As always, the devil is in the details but his Attys will make it all better

Is it possible that Scheffler had no idea that the officer "attached" himself to the vehicle?

Have you been sleeping in?

There's been a thread since about 3 hours after it occurred.

I even posted a video of Scottie in his prison garb ... walking the runway.

Everything is possible and why I said devil's in details.

Lots of blame to go around. Should be some body cam or cell phone footage surfacing at some point. Wasnt a remote country road. Chaotic scene so it will be interesting. You have the Gov and Mayor circling the waters...KY and greater Louisville stand to lose millions in economic impact if Valhalla loses this date...thus why I believe it will all be mitigated in the best interests of all parties

Speaking for myself, I never saw it. But as many know, a lot of text disappears...inexplicably at times here. Mercury must be in retrograde.

Jeff Darlington of ESPN was there. He witnessed and video taped the situation as it occurred.

He's been the one providing most of the details, as he witnessed them.

Again, they keep stating he " didnt know it was a police officer"...which leads me back to my first post on this. Why does it matter? A human being is attached to your vehicle. Stop!
I can't find any report where that part is disputed. Look..hes a good guy in a bad scene...its unfortunate but it is what it is at this point

This could be the beginning of end like the 9 iron incident?

The on the scene reports (from the golf side), suggest it didn't exactly happen that way. Supposedly, the officer in question jumped on Scheffler's moving vehicle, which immediately stopped.

There's also a rumor floating on X (Twitter) over the last 20 minutes or so, that the officer has been relieved from duty. Reiterating, it's only a rumor, posted by @PGATuor ... typically a very good source, but prone to satire on occasion.

Curiously, there is supposedly video cam of the entire event that has yet to be released.

Video said he drove pass and officer chased him down. Did’t follow police instruction. I highly doubt officer grabs moving vehicle, I would imagine he was shouting STOP and the golfer complied. It be pleaded down to and fine.

Amazing how all the attention went to a very wealthy golfer as opposed to the bigger story of the retiree who was volunteering and who lost his life.
