Minutes halfway between the tragic and the absurd at the Valhalla Golf Club, where the 2024 PGA Championship is taking place, the second Major tournament of the season. Let’s start from the background: the start of the second round of the tournament was postponed due to a road accident that occurred nearby.
In the accident, which occurred at dawn, a shuttle, on the express lane, hit a man. Unfortunately the person in question, who was crossing the road, died before making it to the hospital. For this reason the officers are still investigating and the traffic situation is very difficult.

The second question is directly linked to the first. He was going to the place, obviously for golfing reasons Scottie Scheffler, the world number 1 (by a wide margin). The American apparently attempted to force a halt due to traffic regulation, with the policeman clinging to the golfer’s car. Result: Scheffler got out of the car, altercation with said policeman and subsequent handcuffing.
While the video of Scheffler’s arrest goes viral on social media, the PGA Championship announced the start of the second round at 8:35 local time, 2:35 pm Italian time. Scheffler, who is in the group of twelfth with a score of -4 (leading Xander Schauffele with -9), is expected to start at 10:08 in Louisville, 16:08 Italian.
