Scottie Scheffler in trouble again as Police Officer Who Arrested him Releases brutal Statement

The charges stemming from Scottie Scheffler’s arrest at the PGA Championship were dropped on Wednesday, and a strange chapter in the world No. 1 golfer’s career has come to an end.

Scheffler’s arresting officer Bryan Gillis has released a statement on Wednesday, hours after the charges were dropped.

“Mr. Scheffler and I both agree there will be no ill will over this going forward,” Gillis said.

“Instead of giving a negative public reaction, he chose to speak with dignity, humility and respect. My family and I appreciate that.”

Gillis did not show the same level of reverence to Scheffler’s attorney, Steve Romines.

“It was unfortunate and disturbing to hear Steve Romines’ commentary today claiming that a ‘false arrest’ was made and for him to challenge my honesty and integrity,” Gillis said about the golfer’s attorney.

“I’d be surprised and disappointed if Mr. Scheffler actually had any part in making those statements.”

Gillis explained that he was injured after being drug by Scheffler’s car, but that they were injuries to his knees and wrist that he would be able to recover from.

He mentioned the infamous ripped pants from his official statement, saying that “Yes, the department had us buying freaking $80 pants.”

“To those concerned, they were indeed ruined,” Gillis added. 

“But Scottie, it’s all good. I never would’ve guessed I’d have the most famous pair of pants in the country for a few weeks because of this. Take care and be safe.”

Scheffler finished as the runner-up in last week’s Charles Schwab Challenge, and he’s gearing up for the next major on the schedule – next month’s U.S. Open.
