New footage Scottie Scheffler arrest US PGA Championship

New footage of golf star Scottie Scheffler's arrest before PGA Championship emerges, sparking controversy and speculation on social media.

Newly released footage of golf star Scottie Scheffler's arrest has caused quite a stir in the sports world. The incident took place just hours before he was scheduled to compete in the PGA Championship, throwing his second round into disarray.

The video, shared on social media by the Louisville Metro Police Department, captures the moment when Scheffler's car is approached by an officer. The distant footage shows the golfer being handcuffed and led to a police car after a brief discussion.

Scheffler, who recently claimed victory at the Masters, was taken to a local station following a misunderstanding that occurred when he attempted to drive past a police officer at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky. The incident took place in the aftermath of a fatal traffic accident near the club, resulting in the pedestrian's death after being struck by a shuttle bus.

The charges brought against Scheffler include second-degree assault of a police officer, third-degree criminal mischief, reckless driving, and disregarding traffic signals from an officer directing traffic. He was released later that morning and went on to finish the PGA Championship tied for eighth place.

Despite the controversy surrounding his arrest, Scheffler has continued to compete in the Charles Schwab Challenge in Dallas. The ongoing investigation into the incident and the actions of the Kentucky officers involved has left many wondering about the outcome and potential implications for the golfer's career.
