Golfer Scottie Scheffler’s Arrest During PGA Championship Delays Play by Hours

On Friday, May 17, 2024, world number one golfer Scottie Scheffler was detained by police just before the second round of the PGA Championship. The 27-year-old was later released after being stopped near the Valhalla Golf Club where the tournament was being held. Play had been delayed due to a fatal accident near the course, and reports suggest Scheffler was attempting to avoid the scene when he was pulled over.

The incident occurred after traffic had been building up and Scheffler tried to enter the golf club using a side median. However, a police officer instructed him to stop. Despite this, Scheffler tried to continue, prompting the officer to physically intervene. Scheffler was pulled out of his car, handcuffed, and detained on the spot.

ESPN reporter Jeff Darlington who witnessed the incident shared details on air. He stated that there were delays in play due to a fatal accident near the course and Scheffler tried to avoid it when he was pulled over by police officers.
