SCOTTIE SCHEFFLER is facing a race to make his tee time on Day 2 of the PGA Championship.

The World No 1 golfer, who was a tournament favourite to win his second major of the year, was arrested by police in Louisville Kentucky outside Valhalla golf course earlier today.

Scheffler is said to have stepped out of his car after a police officer launched himself onto the vehicle and screamed at him to stop.

The officer then shoved him against the car and placed him in handcuffs, before putting him in the back of a police car.
