Police Taser drunk fan who heckled Tiger Woods at golf tournament



A drunken American who heckled Tiger Woods at a major golf tournament was Tasered by police when he refused to stop.



Travis Parmelee yelled abuse at the shamed golfer at the second round of the Players Championship, close to the 11th hole in Sawgrass, Florida.



The 36-year-old resisted attempts to calm down and became increasingly belligerent – which led to officers zapping him with a 50,000 volt stun gun.

Parmelee was charged with disorderly intoxication and resisting arrest at the event, which marks one of Woods' first public forays back into golf



Parmelee was charged with disorderly intoxication and resisting arrest without violence.



Captain Dave Messenger says Parmelee had been drinking.



The arrest comes four days after a Philadelphia police officer used a stun gun on a teenager dashing through the outfield during a Phillies baseball game at Citizens Bank Park.

The use of a Taser on Parmalee comes just four days after a fan received the same treatment from police for running through the pitch during a Philadelphia baseball game
