Scottie Scheffler, the world No. 1 golfer, was arrested on Friday by police ahead of the second round of the PGA Championship while attempting to drive around a traffic stoppage outside Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Ky.

Traffic outside the golf course had been stopped because of a crash that killed a pedestrian around 5 a.m. ET.

ESPN’s Jeff Darlington reported Scheffler attempted to continue driving another 10-20 yards. When he stopped, a police officer asked Scheffler to exit his vehicle. Darlington reported the police officer opened the car door and placed the 27-year-old in handcuffs and in the back of a police car. Video shows Scheffler in handcuffs being escorted by two officers.

Scheffler was booked into the Louisville Metropolitan Department of Corrections at 7:28 a.m. ET, according to online records. He faces charges of second-degree assault of a police officer, third-degree criminal mischief, reckless driving, and disregarding traffic signals from an officer directing traffic.

Scheffler was then released and arrived at the course shortly after 9 a.m. to play the second round of the PGA Championship at his 10:08 a.m. tee time. He was two-under for the first nine holes of his second round.
