Tony Romo's brutal golf score before getting arrested paints a nightmarish picture - Fox News

What the report says

Fox News, in an OutKick story, reported that former Dallas Cowboys quarterback and CBS NFL analyst Tony Romo was arrested in Milwaukee on Thursday night on an alleged operating while intoxicated offense. The article cited FOX6 in Milwaukee as reporting that Romo was stopped on a highway, did not perform well on field sobriety tests, was released, and is scheduled to appear in court on Sept. 21.

The report tied the arrest to Romo’s day on the golf course, saying it came after the final round of the Wisconsin Amateur Championship, where the 46-year-old was competing. According to the article, Romo finished the event at 35-over par and earned $60. It also said he shot 12-over in the final round.

Fox’s piece emphasized that Romo is widely regarded as a strong amateur golfer and noted that he had recently played in the American Century Championship celebrity event in Nevada. The article also referenced his past efforts to qualify for major golf events, underscoring that golf has been a prominent part of his post-NFL life.

The development matters because Romo remains a high-profile sports figure, both from his Cowboys career and his broadcasting role. The reported court date means the legal process is still pending, and the available information describes the OWI case as alleged rather than resolved.
