The wife of PGA Tour star Lucas Glover was arrested Saturday for domestic violence after she was upset over his poor performance, according to the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office.

Police say Krista Glover, 36, intentionally attacked and injured another person at a home on Marsh Hawk Place in Ponte Vedra Beach. Glover Tweeted Tuesday that an incident did occur.

According to a St. Johns County Sheriff's Report, Krista Glover told deputies, "When the [PGA] Tour hears about this, you will lose your job. Wait til I talk to the judge ... you will be (bleeping) fired."

Glover is the wife of 2009 U.S. Open champion Lucas Glover. Glover played last week in THE PLAYERS Championship, but he missed the secondary cut after shooting 78 and didn't play in the final round.

According to the St. Johns County report, Glover told deputies his wife gets angry when he plays poorly in a tournament. Krista Glover called him a "loser," the report said, after drinking all day. The argument happened in front of the couple's two children, the arrest report said.

Lucas Glover did not want his wife arrested, the report said, and added that his wife often threatens to leave him and take the kids when he does not play well. Glover has three career wins and over $20 million in winnings but has struggled in 2018, with only one top-10 finish.
