Scottie Scheffler detained by police before start of Round 2 at Valhalla Golf Club
Friday witnessed a significant event as Scottie Scheffler's journey to the Valhalla Golf Club was abruptly interrupted by the Louisville Metro Police.
As reported by ESPN's Jeff Darlington, Scheffler was navigating around a crash scene when a police officer ordered him to halt. Despite the command, Scheffler persisted, driving a further 10 to 20 yards towards the entrance of the golf course.
The police officer than stopped Scheffler's car as he entered the golf course and the officer then pulled him out of the car and placed him in handcuffs.
Darlington also reported that he was standing at the entrance and witnessed the event. Scheffler asked him, "Can you help?"
"You need to get out of the way," Darlington said the officer told him. "There's nothing you can do. He's going to jail."
By 8:30 a.m. ET, Scheffler was released by police and was heading back into the golf course to begin play at 10:08 a.m. ET.
"This morning, I was proceeding as directed by police officers," Scheffler said in a statement. "It was a very chaotic situation, understandably so considering the tragic accident that had occurred earlier, and there was a big misunderstanding of what I thought I was being asked to do. I never intended to disregard any of the instructions. I'm hopeful to put this to the side and focus on golf today.
"Of course, all of us involved in the tournament express our deepest sympathies to the family of the man who passed away in the earlier accident this morning. It truly puts everything in perspective."
