Scottie Scheffler addresses his morning before the 2nd Round of the PGA Championship I CBS Sports 

He handled this all very well tbh, respect

For not being able to discuss legal specifics, this turned out to be an excellent interview...from reporters' questions to Scottie's responses.

He handled this incident masterfully and shot the second best score of the day. I honestly like Scottie even more now. RIP to Mr. Mills., tragic situation.

I commend him for having a proper attitude in a precarious situation 👏🏽👏🏽

Not sure what happened but there were rumors the arresting officer got quite aggressive with him. Hope he had a good reason, because unlike the rest of us, Scottie can hire a corporation of lawyers to handle that. Wrong person to rough up without a damn good reason.

Last tournament in Kentucky. Nice communication.

He got totally screwed by the police and I hope and pray that the idiot who arrested him will drop these charges. It was total BS what that officer did

Great video, thanks cbs sports team

He got arrested, then shot a round of 66. Maybe he should get arrested the next two days too!!

Remember this next time some athlete comes up with explanations for a bad performance. ;)

Look at this hardened seasoned criminal

What a morning for everyone. This will be something that all golf fans will remember for a good minute. Prayers for the family of the person that tragically passed away this morning. I hope that everything gets worked out as far as his specific incident, and serves as a learning experience for him and his team. I’m sure he learned a different type of love towards the game after he was able to go through that experience and grab that driver at the fist tee.

The cops is saying he is hurt. He is saying he's bruised,scraped, sore, and swollen. You really think this will be handled quick. He is going to try and go all the way with it. I just really hope you kept your mouth shut. They are not your buddies.

We need the body cam video released

What a class act by Mr. Scheffler... on and off the course

Louisville- the Fool Palace of police work.

Simply Amazing!!!

A first on many levels. Legend growing

If Scottie wasn't your favorite golfer beofe today, he sure as shit should be now. What a class act.

Everybody just need to wait until all the details come out. Nobody knows exactly what happened yet

Legend.

If that prosecutor has any sense at all, those charges will be dropped

Fair play to you Scottie! Dealt with the whole situation with class and professionalism…..now sue the c**ts! Donate the winnings to charity and let every professional organisation come to the realisation that it’s best to not have events there and stimulate their economy!! RIP Mr Mills, condolences with the family ❤

Louisville Police Department has an issue with NOT HAVING BODY CAMERAS ON!

My gut tells me cop f up and union will protect him as always 😂 time for a 12 month paid leave for his “back injury”

What a great man!

I work at that golf club this week

Class act

A Masters Class, the whole day. Hope he laps the field. To Detective "Dobie" Gillis...the Chief, the Mayor and the Governor would like to wish you well in whatever you do in the future.

No body cam? Officer should be fired immediately for that alone.

i have been in that type of episode, confusion, flashing lights, cops yelling, cops are control freaks.

Class act, LeBron take notes

Man, this guy.

Scotty has no criminal records. He should be fine

Nice round!

Classy!!

Class

He’s been through a lot, to say the least. Let him go and rest already.

In a world where turning around, placing your hands together, but a simple tug when you arms and being bent, is “stop resisting”, i don’t care what the cops say.

My son has his look,not his money.I can only wonder how he will be treated in life. I know how he has been treated in all state schools. He now attends Houston Christian University. And Scottie you must protect yourself and family.

I'll withhold judgement till the truth comes out in court.

If there's one thing Scotties not going to do it's be late for his routine to prepare for his round. That's why he's who he is. I suspect the cop went commando and even hung onto the car like it's life and death. Says a lot.

SCOTTY GOING TO MAKE EM SETTLE😤

Scottie drove it OB on the way to the course.

Maybe he wouldn’t talk about the arrest, hoping his attorney ask him NOT to! I’m not sue happy person, as our business got sued by a few employees over time. I’d like to think head of PGA would be in touch with Chief of Police in KY. imo, Despite the morning start, he had an amazing round…Go Scottie 👏 👍🤞

He has better luck with a driver than as a driver.

He is a beast

A class man

FREE SCOTTIE T-SHIRTS are going to sell like hotcakes 😂

Good to see fans supporting Scottie. Evidently the one officer didn’t get the word that players would be allowed a way around the accident. Dont blame the officer. Lack of communication to the local cop.

To me, it sounds like, that he tried to get out of traffic and do what he wanted to do because he is a Golfer, “the number 1 in the World” He didn’t listen to the “Police Officer” because he thought it was an “Security Guard ( You are nobody attitude, Do you know who I am”. Scottie mentioned he thought he was a Security Guard because of the yellow jacket he had on. So he gave the guard less respect and tried to do what he wanted to do because who he is. Power and Control. He was a little cocky to me on the press conference. Witnesses seem like they on Scotties Side because He Is “The Worlds Number 1 Golfer” , “ The Number 1 Golfer in the World” As he can do any wrong. The Policer should have had on his body camera.

😱It's SCARY to visit this state knowing if they can do this to the NUMBER ONE golfer in the world & the most humble NICEST human being, how WORSE will ordinary folks be treated?

What is a detective doing directing traffic - something smells here

Cops aren’t wrong until a rich white golfer is arrested

I just can’t comprehend how common sense didn’t prevail there in the first place, He shouldn’t have even been taken into custody. How absurd. America home of paranoia and chaos

It appears this is the kind of world number 1 golf should have. Great golfer and genuinely great role model. Of course he might still have a dozen girlfriends we don't know about but he's looking good at the moment.

Reports are saying that the Booking Officer recorded the following items from Scottie before stripped searched: One gold watch One alligator skin wallet Master Card American Express Gold Card Visa, Diner's Club, Carte Blanche Two tickets.... La Bohéme, to which Scottie replied- it's an opera.

Every large police department like Louisville has at least one Derek Chauvin like officer ready to immediately act without thinking of the consequences. If I was the police chief, PGA official or Valhalla official I would be asking this arresting officer do you think you could have handled this a little differently than dragging Mr. Sheffler off to jail?

No specifics😂

That Louisville office hurt his wrist and his pants scratched 😂😮😢, if it is Scottie’s fault, then let’s see the video evidence ?

I never saw Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer or Tom Watson arrested with a mug shot. Interesting how pro golfer characters have dramatically declined e.g. Tiger Woods, Scottie Scheffler, Dustin Johnson etc.

I know he can beat anyone with two hands tied behind his back but this is ridiculous

Take Notes Youngbucks

He was doing a good 85 miles an hour and that Netflix documentary. Do likes to drive fast at least that should count for something l.

Cop doesn’t seem to have good people skills, or good judgment.

0:14 Typical press, he says he can't talk about his experience and every question the press asks is leading to his experience, the press can really be ignorant pricks.

Scottie. You didn't do anything wrong in terms of what happened during those angry moments and it happens and I understand. But you need to obey the law. I don't care if the police officer was a jerk. But when those flash lights going off on the top of the vehicles, they are the cops not the securities. You need to comply with them no matter what. If you didn't know if they were the police officers, there is something very wrong with you.

Would have been great if Scottie showed up at the first tee in an orange jumpsuit. The PGA would probably have something to say about it, of course.

I cannot stomach all of the commenters here drawing conclusions, WITHOUT ANY OF THEM HAVING BEEN THERE. Second (or worse)-hand information is bad for drawing conclusions upon.

😮

Wow… Cares more about the family of the man who passed then he does about his own painful scenario.

LMPD is full of drama queens.

Did they strip search you.

Oh Scottie, Oh Scottie, give me a break. People are arrested everyday, accused of crimes of a more serious nature with less resources than Scottie Scheffler, and with bigger concerns than making a tee time, and go through a trial prior to being released. I'm sure Scottie Scheffler will survive, innocent or not, yet to be determined by law.

So let me see if I get this, you drive around a barricade run into a police officer that's knocked to the ground and then a few hours later you're playing golf. Oh and you're charged with four felonies. If you're rich and a celebrity rules don't apply to you. Also why is this man still allowed to compete in this golf tournament?

The only people Losing more money than Vulhula, Dentist.

Scottie: “I’m a golfer” Cop: No Scottie: “Hold my tailgate”

To serve and to protect.......its a joke right ?

Welcome to the world of black. Except he got to live to tell about it. Some people just should not be officers. I went through some similar in Birmingham at a Garth Brooks concert without the arrest. A lot of officers just make the worst decisions under pressure I don’t k know what Louisville PD has going on

If it was anyone else we would be in jail.

4 counts Scotty

He wouldn't have gone to jail if he would have told the police who he was in the first place but he didn't say a word to them which is just mind boggling!

This is the usual cop. They lose control in a chaotic scene because they unprepared and poorly trained and then resort to violence and arrests for petty things. For Scottie it is not a big deal but for working people these charges can lead to being fired not to mention legal fees and battles.

Not a single Black man in America would have had his experience...even while saying the SAME EXACT THING: "I didn't understand what they were saying", "I didn't know I was doing anything wrong", "I was confused", or by simply having their hands up, on the steering wheel, or in their pockets. He needs to own his privilege.

Here’s Tiger 2.0. Let’s Go!!!!!

He knew what he did was wrong there no misunderstanding he full of shit

why is he gettig all this sympathy?. he drove off with the cop hanging on the door!

Soft ball questions

arrogance with ignorance is always a recipe for disaster. FYI- other golfers complained to pga they had to walk to the course . The pga uses signs on the pro’s cars to avoid traffic jams and get to the course, not because they are entitled, because they have sponsor requirements and practice before teeming off.

Let's all be concerned about him being arrested. Who cares about the person thay died?

I wonder what would have happened if he was black

Racism

So sick of this guy!

Kentucky? Good thing Scottie isn’t a horse. They probably would have tried to put him down.

Class act like myself

White justice. Black justice. 🤔

Don't ever have another event is that POS city.

Kentucky doesn’t deserve PGA

Big fan of Scotty but people lets be real, he lost his shit because he put his tee time above the law, drove through a crime scene and injured a police officer and deliberately disobeyed direction from the police who were investigating a fatality, he lost his shit and acted like a fool, they should have kept him in jail for one night to learn a lesson here, instead he is getting praised for his behavior and his golf performance, professional athletes think the whole world revolves around them and they get preferential treatment that we the public do not get. Its concerning how what he did is being brushed off, somebody lost their life that morning. He is lucky he didnt cause another fatality. Hope the golf Gods seek retribution on him this weekend.

these are stupid questions, why doesnt any reporter ask him "WHY DID YOU DISOBEY THE OFFICER AND BLAST THROUGH THE SECURITY"? HE IS AT FAULT YET TAKING NO REPONSIBILITY
