World number one Scottie Scheffler has been charged with assaulting a police officer outside Valhalla Golf Club hours before his second round at the US PGA Championship. Scheffler was released just in time to take to the course on Friday for his tee-off time of 10.08am (15:08 BST). Speaking as he arrived at the course for his second round, Scheffler said the incident was a "big misunderstanding". Play at the year's second major was delayed by 80 minutes on Friday because of an accident near the course. Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) said a shuttle bus had struck and killed a pedestrian outside the golf club.
