You are assuming the SS was aware of the fatal accident as opposed to the usual early bird crowds swarming a major sporting event.
You typically cheerlead when the guy is black. You are a hypocrite to the highest level.
Just your usual naps sequitur...
Nutter.

They love the taste of jackboot leather, don’t they?
True, but you must admit...the mugshot with the beard could pass for an Islamic nut job!
Evidently the police officer doesn't follow the sport.
Or the rules, you don't throw yourself on a marked courtesy car slowly moving into the golf course as if he were a bomb laden terrorist rushing a military base.
Perhaps his pass did not apply to being at the scene of a fatal incident.
They were given the placards by the Tour and instructed that they could avoid the closures and go into the venue. Scottie was doing what he was told to do. Thug cop overreacted.
When did they get these placards?
Serious questions.
Did the tour know there was a fatal accident?
I can understand the value of players having a way to by-pass a line of cars wanting access to the club under normal circumstances, but .......if a cop says "stop" - you stop!!
1000%
The golfers routinely pass the traffic outside the course that is waiting to get in when the course opens to spectators. They have a special pass. Scheffler told the cop that he thought he was course security, not the police. It was still dark and it was raining. Scheffler was just doing what he normally does and stopped when he realized the cop was a cop.
BTW...since as Yogi Berra used to say..."The Game is 90% half mental", I wonder how Scheffler's round will turn out today.
<< They have a special pass. Scheffler told the cop that he thought he was course security, not the police. >>
Yep. Watching the PGA now. Scheffler is -2 on the day through 9, -6 for the tournament, 3 off the lead. Looking completely at ease, as if nothing happened. Huge support from the gallery.
FAR TOO MANY OF YOU DID NOT READ THE FULL ARTICLE.
Yes, It is longer than necessary and redundant, but it describes why Scheffler did what he did.
Based on that his behavior is completely understandable.
Literacy is your friend.
Oh brother. Get a life. He was going in because he had an early tee time. The cop was being overly zealous arresting him.
I’ve seen pics of “Free Scottie” t shirts in the gallery.
Way too many around here reflexively side with jackboots, not knowing or even wanting to know the details.
Addressing your dumbass statement, I will say yes.
5-under 66
Nice try tho.....LOL!
