(WBAP/KLIF) — FOX News –Scottie Scheffler was detained before the start of the second round of the PGA Championship after a deadly car crash near Valhalla Golf Course, where the event is taking place.
Scheffler was put in handcuffs after a “misunderstanding with traffic flow led to his attempt to drive past a police officer into Valhalla Golf Club,” ESPN’s Jeff Darlington wrote on X.
“The police officer attempted to attach himself to Scheffler’s car, and Scheffler then stopped his vehicle at the entrance to Valhalla,” Darlington added. “The police officer then began to scream at Scheffler to get out of the car. When Scheffler exited the vehicle, the officer shoved Scheffler against the car and immediately placed him in handcuffs. He is now being detained in the back of a police car.”
Representatives for Scheffler did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.
