Before Scottie Scheffler went out and shot the best second-round score in any major of his career, he got arrested.
A traffic incident at the gates of Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville seemingly escalated quickly in the early morning hours on Friday and Scheffler found himself doing warm-up stretches inside a Louisville jail cell in the event he was able to make his tee time.
Well, not only did the No. 1 golfer in the world make it back to the course with an hour to spare, he carded a 66 to move into the top five on the leaderboard thanks to six birdies on the day.
And he did it all after fueling up with a sandwich the officers gave him while in jail. Considering how well he played after the ordeal, golf fans are convinced there’s only one option for Scheffler next April when he returns to Augusta National to plan the annual Champions Dinner: A prison-themed meal.
Seriously, it seemed like every golf fan came to the same conclusion:
