Scottie Scheffler’s trip to Louisville for the 2024 PGA Championship has been anything but normal.
He kicked off the weekend with a stellar showing in the first round of the tournament. But ahead of Friday’s second round, he was arrested on his way into Valhalla Golf Club after trying to drive around the scene of a traffic accident. He spent a short time in jail before returning to the course and turning in a 5 under performance .
On Saturday, the adrenaline seemingly caught up with Scheffler. The 27-year-old shot 2 over, snapping a run of 41 consecutive rounds in which he finished at par or better. The round also included him hitting a bogey or worse on three straight holes, the first time he had done that since 2022.

Scheffler fell down the leaderboard, dropping 20 spots from fourth after the second round to tied for 24th. Though he is still 7 under for the tournament, the battle for the Wanamaker Trophy current features a trio of golfers at 14 or 15 under, meaning Scheffler faces a steep challenge in trying to get back to the top.
