Scottie Scheffler has found himself making headlines once more, and not for the reasons golf fans would expect. The World No. 1 golfer was reportedly arrested again, and the golf world is buzzing with reactions that are surprisingly unified.
Social media erupted as news broke, with fans expressing everything from disbelief to weary humor. One recurring sentiment quickly dominated online conversations: “Here we go again.”
For many, Scheffler’s arrest is an almost surreal turn of events given his usually calm, uncontroversial reputation on and off the course. Known for his composure and focus during tournaments, Scheffler is rarely associated with drama. That’s why, for fans, this second arrest feels bizarrely out of character.
“Scottie Scheffler getting arrested again is the last thing I thought I’d see this year,” one fan posted on X. “He’s supposed to be golfing, not starring in crime blotters.”

Another comment summed up the mood perfectly: “It’s wild seeing someone so humble and professional constantly in headlines for this kind of stuff. It doesn’t even feel real.”
Some fans even joked about starting a “Free Scheffler” movement, while others simply asked for more context before passing judgment. Many pointed back to the chaotic circumstances surrounding his previous arrest, suggesting that Scheffler might just be in the wrong place at the wrong time—again.
The PGA Tour has yet to release an official statement, and Scheffler himself has remained silent on the incident. Until more details are revealed, the golf community is left with speculation—and plenty of memes.
For now, one thing is certain: when a quiet, clean-cut figure like Scottie Scheffler ends up behind bars again, fans take notice. And this time, they all seem to be saying the same thing: “Not again, Scottie.”
