SC golfer missed the cut in a PGA event. Wife called him 'loser' and attacked, cops say
The State ^ | 5/15/20189 | Noah Feit

Things went from bad to worse for Lucas Glover last weekend.

The South Carolina native missed the 54-hole cut at one of the PGA Tour's premier events, The Players Championship, which is held in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.

After failing to qualify for the final round, the 2009 U.S. Open champion was attacked by his wife for his poor showing in the tournament, according to the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office, golfdigest.com reported.

Krista Glover was arrested after the sheriff's office said she "forcefully attacked" Glover, and his mother, Hershey Glover, in front of the couple's two children, according to nypost.com.

Lucas and Krista Glover were involved in an altercation when Hershey Glover tried to intervene, but the 62-year-old then became a target for Krista Glover, The Associated Press reported.

Hershey Glover had blood on her shirt and told sheriff's deputies that she was hit in the chest, according to golfdigest.com, adding that law enforcement noted both Hershey and Lucas Glover suffered multiple lacerations.

The Clemson alum told deputies that Krista Glover had been drinking during the day as he struggled to make the final cut, shooting a 78 on Saturday, according to deadspin.com.

The same website reported that Lucas Glover told deputies that “every time he plays poorly in a tournament, Krista begins yelling at him, stating he is a ‘loser’ and (wimp) and ultimately starting an altercation with him about his performance.”

Despite the report, the 38-year-old golfer asked sheriff's deputies not to arrest his wife, dailymail.co.uk reported.

When the sheriff's deputies did arrest Krista Glover, they reported that she "forcefully tried to separate herself from the arresting deputy and refused to be placed into a patrol car," and that she attempted to wrap her legs around the car door according to actionnewsjax.com.

Krista Glover reportedly damaged the patrol car by kicking the door and loosened her handcuffs as she tried to run away, but she was stopped, golfdigest.com reported.

She also used threatening language toward the deputies, according to the arrest report, which stated Krista said, "Wait till the Tour hears about this. You will lose your job. This is why cops get shot in the face. Wait till I talk with the judge, you will be (freaking) fired over this.”

Krista Glover was arrested and charged with domestic battery and resisting arrest. She was released Sunday morning after posting $2,500 bond, deadspin.com reported.

According to the arrest report, Lucas Glover also told deputies that his wife told him "he better win or her and the kids would leave him and he would never see their kids again."

However, the Greenville native took a softer approach when addressed the issue on Twitter on Tuesday.

“Everyone is fine," he tweeted. "Regrettably, although Krista was charged, we are comfortable that the judicial system is able to address what actually happened and Krista will be cleared in this private matter. We thank you for respecting our privacy as we work through this unfortunate situation.”

In addition to winning the U.S. Open, Lucas Glover has finished first in three PGA tournaments during his career, according to pgatour.com. He has earned more than $20 million in his career, and has one top-10 finish in 2018.

“What a gem. I hope she gets the help she obviously needs.”

I agree. I seek understanding of people, but often get caught up in the humor of the facade they try to present and judge them. Rather than being judgemental, it is better that I pray for the entire family that they find true peace in God.

(I am just as critical and judgemental of myself and need to laugh more at me. Ever since I learned to laugh at myself I have never run out of humor!)

Had a friend who almost got put out the military under the Clinton force reduction program, his wife lock him out the house until a First MSgt would promise not to boot him out.

He was able to stay in the military not because of his wife, but because enough people took the separation pay offer.

I often wonder if his Wife beats him. I know of about 4 guys with wife’s who beat them.

Hey, cut Krista some slack. Don’t you know it’s hard being Mrs PGA?

All her sorority sisters married lawyers, investment bankers, and boys with trust funds. She married the fellow who would be the next Rory McIlroy. Her girlfriends all have their 5,000 sq ft homes at the top country clubs. She still has only an ordinary suburban 4 bedroom home because Lucas is only an average golfer.

That would drive any blonde sorority gal to drink, wouldn’t it?

Agree with all you said. We should pray for her and the family.

She has the look definitely of a druggy, and I suspect that’s why she went off on the guy. She’s probably feeding her drug habit with his winnings.

I think pro golfers are better off single. Case in point, Tiger Woods before he was married.

Mine tried to jump out of the car at 50mph.
Another time lit herself on fire while cooking.

He has won over $20 million on the PGA Tour. How much money
has she earned anywhere, ever?

*************

The problem is she has spent the $20 million plus and wants
more. I hope she can get into a treatment program because
she has two young children that need a sober mom around.

She didn’t earned half, but she is certainly entitled to half.

Her word of the day is "legs".

Methinks the lucky fellows who hit the jackpot with her when she was a sorority girl didn't care.

"Redhead...above the Crazy Line."

Roger that. I dated one ginger in college and while she was a knockout and a tigress after lights were out, she was definitely above the crazy line as well. 10 looks and 11 crazy. Jealous as all get-out.

She met a blonde gal who was only a friend of mine -- never romantic -- but when the ginger had 5 minutes alone with her she scared the livin bejeezus out of the blondie. Told her to say away from me, that we were engaged and already shopping for rings, etc. etc.

I didn't break up until the end of the year when we graduated -- I liked the other benefits too much -- but I knew for certain that it would be over come June.

Okay. However, huge fake boobs are often an indication that the lady is not the quiet, homemaking type.
