Scottie Scheffler score today: Complete Round 2 results, highlights after arrest at PGA Championship

Scottie Scheffler had an eventful second day at the 2024 PGA Championship. And that's before his morning tee time.

The world No. 1 golfer was headed to the course early Friday morning. There was a heavy police presence and a major traffic backup, and Scheffler attempted to drive around the traffic to reach the Valhalla Golf Club. Police had been on the scene of a fatality in which a pedestrian had been struck and killed by a bus while attempting to cross the street around 5 a.m. ET.

Scheffler attempted to drive around the police on a median, and after being instructed by police to stop, he reportedly continued to drive toward the entrance. An officer attached himself to Scheffler's car and Scheffler drove for 10 to 20 yards before Scheffler stopped.

Scheffler reportedly told police he did not know they were officers. Scheffler believed they were just security officers, and attempted to explain the miscommunication, but was placed in handcuffs and taken to jail.

Scheffler was booked in jail at 7:28 a.m. ET, according to Louisville Metropolitan Department of Corrections records. The Kentucky Court of Justice listed the charges faced by Scheffler as second degree assault of a police officer, third degree criminal mischief, reckless driving and disregarding signals from officers directing traffic. The assault of a police officer is considered a Class C felony.

The tee time for Scheffler was moved up to 10:08 a.m. ET. He was released from jail and arrived at the Valhalla Golf Club at 9:12 a.m. ET. He then reached the driving range where he began practicing ahead of his tee time.

How did Scheffler handle the pressure? Perhaps better than anyone could have expected. Scheffler turned in a sterling 5 under performance, moving to 9 under for the tournament overall. He only had one bogey the entire day and tallied six birdies. He vaulted himself all the way up to third by the end of his day.

(All times Eastern)

Hole 9, Par 4

Shot 4: Scheffler finishes out the day making par on his final hole. He sits at 9 under and is still two shots off the lead. Excellent performance from Scheffler considering the circumstances.

Shot 3: Scheffler won't birdie the hole, but puts himself in tremendous position to make par with an excellent shot that puts him just a few feet away from the hole. A nice recovery after a shaky second shot.

Shot 2: Scheffler lands off the green and would need to sink one heck of a shot to net a birdie on his final hole of the day.

Shot 1: This should sound familiar by now. Scheffler's first shot of the day was right down the fairway. He sits 141 yards from the hole and is set up to potentially pick up another birdie to end his day.

Hole 8, Par 3

Shot 3: Scheffler easily puts in his third shot for par. He stays at 9 under on the day and is still two strokes off the lead.

Hole 7, Par 5

Shot 4: Unreal putt for Scheffler as he sinks the birdie to fall to 9 under. 

Shot 3: Scheffler had to wait a minute for his next shot, and it's not a great one as it hits near the pin and rolls a bit further away. He'll have a long putt for birdie and two chances for par or better.

Shot 2: Scheffler's shot carries a bit too far and gets into the gallery. Not exactly where he wanted it, but he'll have some room for error on the hole.

Shot 1: Scheffler keeps his tee shot on the fairway for a nice start to the par 5.

Hole 6, Par 4

Shot 1: Another hole, another fairway made by Scheffler.

Hole 5, Par 4

Shot 4: Tap-in for par.

Shot 3: Scheffler was perhaps an inch away from chipping in that shot. He flipped it up and watched it slowly roll perfectly on track before stopping just shy.

Hole 3, Par 3

Shot 1: Iron shot off the tee carries a bit wide left and appears to land in front of the bunker. It'll have to be an up-and-down for Scheffler.

Hole 2, Par 4

Shot 3: Another birdie for Scheffler, who now has birdies on two of his past three holes. He's now tied for fourth.

Shot 2: Scheffler nearly landed an improbable eagle, but it instead lands a few feet past the hole after a close bounce. He'll putt downhill for a chance at another birdie.

Shot 3: Just about perfection for Scheffler on what was an otherwise challenging place to make a shot. He combats some thick, wet grass to drop the ball a few feet about the pin to give himself an opportunity at a birdie putt.

Shot 2: Tough lie for Scheffler as he can't get the layup and it winds up falling below the fairway. He'll have a difficult approach on the par 5.

Hole 17, Par 4

Shot 2: Nice approach shot by Scheffler as he hits it a bit past the pin, but gets the ball to stay on the green.

Hole 15, Par 4

Shot 4: Easy par for Scheffler.

Shot 3: The line was right for the birdie putt, but it slows down too close to the pin. He'll go for a third straight par.

Hole 14, Par 3

Shot 3: Scheffler sinks the putt for par to stay 1 under for the day.

Shot 1: Scheffler starts with a solid drive off the tee, going a bit to the right of the fairway, but still putting him at a decent start to the 12th hole.

Hole 11, Par 3

Shot 4: Back to an even par on the day for Scheffler.

Shot 3: Scheffler's putt sails wide right, and he'll have to settle for bogey.

Shot 2: Scheffler opts to try and chip the shot toward the hole rather than go for a long putt, and he nearly chips it in, but it carries a bit past the hole. He should still have a close opportunity for par with the putter.
