Masters champion Scottie Scheffler was detained by police on Friday for not following police instructions during a traffic jam that followed a traffic fatality involving a pedestrian, ESPN reported.
ESPN had footage of Scheffler handcuffed and walking toward a police car in the morning darkness, with traffic shut down for about 1.6km in both directions.
Police said the pedestrian was trying to cross the road when struck by a bus in a lane dedicated to vehicles entering the club.
