Charges have since been dropped on what both parties described as miscommunication as Scottie Scheffler attempted to arrive at the Valhalla Golf Club for the second round of the PGA Championship on May 17, 2024.The Ringer’s Nathan Hubbard reported that Meredith Scheffler and the couple’s newborn joined Scottie Scheffler in Louisville following his arrest. The trip came just days after Scottie Scheffler announced the news of the couple’s new baby in a May 13, 2024, Instagram post.“On Friday morning, he came straight in [after the arrest]. He saluted the crowd [in player dining] who were gathering, eating their eggs, grabbed a plate of eggs, sat with his team, approved a quick statement, started to tell the story,” Hubbard explained during a May 20, 2024, episode of the “Fairway Rollin’” podcast. “
He had a little bit of bruising on his left arm. It was very clear from that moment that Scottie was shocked at what had transpired.“And that he certainly, from his own words and from the words of multiple eyewitnesses in the media who were there, that Scottie was not the aggressor. But I can tell you this, Scottie woke up on Saturday [the day after the arrest] and was in tears,” Hubbard continued.
“And he was just sad about the incident. You can imagine that on Friday, his body was firing so much adrenaline that he just went out and played the round.“
But by Saturday, Meredith flew in that morning, or came in on Friday with a newborn. But he just wasn’t himself. And you could tell it from the opening hole all the way through that round [third round of the PGA Championship].”
