World No. 1 golfer Scottie Scheffler was handcuffed and detained by police prior to the start of the second round of the PGA Championship on Friday morning.
The start of the round also was delayed because of a fatal crash, with PGA Championship officials expected to make an announcement at 7:30 a.m. ET.
Per Louisville Metro Police, a shuttle bus struck and killed an adult male pedestrian as he was crossing the road near the front gate of Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Ky.
Scheffler, who was not involved in the accident, reportedly attempted to drive around the incident before a police officer grabbed on to the golfer’s car. Scheffler then stopped his vehicle at the entrance to Valhalla and exited the car after being prompted by the officer, who placed him in handcuffs.
The second round was scheduled to start at 7:15 a.m. ET but was delayed until 8:35 a.m.
Scheffler initially was scheduled to tee off at 8:48 a.m.
