The charges against 10-time PGA Tour winner Scottie Scheffler were dropped on Wednesday, nearly two weeks after he was arrested just before the second round of the PGA Championship in Kentucky. 

Jefferson County Attorney Mike O’Connell addressed the court and stated that the evidence gathered during their investigation backed up Scheffler's claim that the entire situation was a "misunderstanding." The four charges, which included felony assault over injuries a Louisville Metro Police Department officer sustained during the encounter on May 17, were dismissed.  

Last week, Louisville Police Chief Jacquelyn Gwinn-Villaroel announced during a press conference that Detective ​​Bryan Gillis received "corrective action" after an internal investigation found that he did not follow proper protocols by failing to turn on his body camera.  

"We understand the seriousness of the failure to capture this interaction, which is why our officer has received corrective action for this policy violation," Gwinn-Villaroel said at the time.  This corrective action has been notated on a performance observation form, which is in line with our disciplinary protocol and practices. We respect the judicial process, and we will allow the course to proceed accordingly. We will not be able to make any further statements as relates to this matter."
