Scottie Scheffler’s caddie Ted Scott has revealed how the PGA Tour golfer’s arrest played out for him at the PGA Championship.

Scottie Scheffler’s caddie Ted Scott has revealed how the PGA Tour golfer’s arrest during the PGA Championship played out for him. 

Scheffler was handcuffed outside the gates of Valhalla before the second round of the second men’s major of the year.

The two-time Masters champion was attempting to drive into the club amid heavy traffic that, very sadly, was caused by a fatal traffic incident.

PGA of America employee John Mills, 69, was struck and killed by a shuttle bus.

Scheffler was whisked away and charged with with second-degree assault of a police officer, third-degree criminal mischief, reckless driving and disregarding traffic signals from an officer.

Charges were ultimately dropped against Scheffler. Jefferson County attorney Mike O’Connell said the golfer’s actions ‘did not satisfy the elements of a criminal offence’.

For his part, Scheffler held no grudges and clarified that the whole thing was ‘a big misunderstanding’ in a ‘chaotic situation’.

Now Scheffler’s caddie has revealed how the whole thing played out for him.

He has also praised Scheffler for not suing the city of Louisville after the ’emotional’ situation.
