All charges against pro-golfer Scottie Scheffler have been dropped nearly two weeks after he was arrested while attempting to drive around the scene of a deadly crash on his way to the PGA Championship in Louisville, Kentucky.

“Based upon the totality of the evidence, my office can not move forward in the prosecution of the charges filed against Mr. Scheffler,” Jefferson County Attorney Mike O'Connell said during Wednesday’s court hearing.
