NextImg:Scottie Scheffler tosses putter in frustration at Charles Schwab: ‘Screw these greens’

Scottie Scheffler might be human after all.

Scheffler was uncharacteristically struggling at the Charles Schwab Challenge at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, and visibly showed his frustration on Friday.

On the 11th hole — Scheffler’s second of the day — he had a putt for birdie from the edge of the green and missed it when the ball hung out to the left.

The world’s top golfer flipped his putter in frustration and said, “Screw these greens, man!”

Scheffler was a disappointing 2-over on Thursday’s first round but started to heat up on Friday with four straight birdies as he made the turn.

Hours before he teed off on Thursday, the Louisville Metro Police Department released footage of his arrest from the PGA Championship a week ago.

The video showed a police officer — Detective Bryan Gillis — chasing down his car as he entered Valhalla Golf Club following a misunderstanding over traffic flow.

While Scheffler still made his tee time, he faded in the major.

“Scottie Scheffler didn’t do anything wrong,” the golfer’s attorney, Steve Romines, told reporters on Thursday after video of the arrest emerged. “We’re not interested in settling the case. We will either try it or it will be dismissed. It’s very simple. All the evidence that continues to come out just continues to support what Scottie said all along. This was a chaotic situation and miscommunication, and he didn’t do anything wrong.”

The arrest came after a momentous two months for the 27-year-old.

In April, he won The Masters by three shots over second-place Collin Morikawa, Max Homa and Tommy Fleetwood.

Earlier this month, he became a first-time father, as his wife, Meredith, gave birth to their son, Bennett.

“Welcome to the world little one. Your mom & dad love you so much,” the 27-year-old Scheffler wrote in a post on Instagram in which he was cradling his baby in his arms.
