Prosecutors have officially dropped all charges tied to Scottie Scheffler’s traffic incident at the PGA championship in Louisville. Now, a new video has surfaced shining more light on the moments following his arrest. NBC’s Stephanie Gosk reports for TODAY.
Two-time Masters champion Scottie Scheffler has been the No. 1 player in the world for more than a year. Now, he's looking forward to representing his country and adding “Olympian” to his resume. “Playing for your country is always extremely exciting and it will be pretty surreal doing it on the Olympic stage,” Scheffler said in an interview with Team USA. “It’s also good bragging rights for people that tell me golf is not a sport — I can say it’s an Olympic sport.
You could say Scheffler is on a roll. The University of Texas alum has won six of the 15 events he’s competed in this year and finished in the Top 10 in 13 events. He’s taken home more than $27 million in earnings, which breaks the PGA tour record for earnings in a season — a record he set last season. Before he jets off to Paris, Scheffler will play in the 2024 Open Championship, the final major of the season, where he is a 5-1 favorite to win.
