Yeah RG3 should’ve just said golf.
And handled that shit like true professionals
The comment didn't make sense both ways
Because the cops were well within their right for this. This was totally different from those situations.
Saw this in the morning and they kept saying but he is driving his sponsored PGA vehicle. True but did he go when the cop told him he can go or his entitled ass did what he wanted. Then had the nerve to say oh I didn't know he was a police officer.
All this did was give him more publicity cause ESPN is going to milk this situation.

As much as Scheffler was in the right, once someone jumps on his car and tells him to stop, then his dumbass brain should've told him to remember the position he is in and to stop the fuckin' car!!!
I'm sure whatever it was could've been cleared up in a minute or two and dude would've been on his way. Oh well.... Entitlement
Honestly, it's not going to hurt his public image.

And the whole world knows who he is. If you don’t watch golf you would have never known he was the #1 golfer in the world
I wonder why the PGA didn’t give him his own driver though?

What was he right about? Traffic is stopped for a major accident in which someone was killed. They have to do due process for that and gather evidence. The traffic is secondary. It was 5am, not 8am.
He would have been off schedule for 20-30 minutes
It's like the traffic being stopped and you drive on the shoulder because you're late to work and the cops catch you and tell you to stop, and you continue to drive.
He was right because they were letting golfers and officials pass.
Plus, he was in a marked PGA car.
Seems like the cop probably told him to hold up a minute or some shit and he freaked out cause he didn't want to miss his tee time.
Not letting him off the hook, but he was doing what others were already doing.
Earlier Saturday, Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg told the Louisville Courier-Journal that he wasn't certain if Detective Bryan Gillis was wearing a bodycam at the time of the traffic stop, but that it wasn't turned on if he was. Greenberg said there was footage captured from a fixed camera across the street, which would be released in the coming days.
In a response to ESPN on Saturday, a public information officer for Louisville police said Greenberg's statement was accurate.
"There is no body-worn camera footage of the initial encounter," the police spokesman said in an email. "The incident is under review internally and will proceed through the judicial process. We would like to restate that all parties involved are fully cooperating. LMPD is committed to a thorough investigation for all involved."
The public information officer also emailed a copy of the department's standard operating procedures for body-worn cameras (BWC), which were revised in December 2022. Section 4.31.6 of the procedures states that officers are required to "maintain their BWC in a constant state of operational readiness."
"The BWC will be used to record all calls for service and law enforcement activities/encounters (e.g. arrests, citations, stops, pursuits, Code 3 operations/responses, searches, seizures, interviews, identifications, use of force incidents, collisions, transports, warrants, official conversations on departmental smartphones, etc.)," the procedures said. "Members are mandated to adhere to the following procedures in order to capture law enforcement-related activity."
The procedures further state that officers "will immediately activate their BWC in recording mode prior to engaging in all law enforcement activities or encounters."
When ESPN asked if Gillis was supposed to have his BWC activated when he encountered Scheffler, the spokesman replied, "What we have shared with you is what is available at this time."
Welp...... The cop had his camera turned off. Completely lied on his report. What a shock!! Scheffler might even have a lawsuit if he decides to pursue it.
