Scottie Scheffler arrested on his way to round at PGA Champ

After a very short warmup he birdied the first hole

Perhaps just a bit of an overreaction ??

There are significant restrictions for traffic near Valhalla during the tournament with attendees parking very far away and taking shuttles. Maybe that’s the case in all golf tournament as I’m guessing the courses don’t have parking spaces to accommodate tens of thousands of cars. You’d think the tournament organizers would find a way for the golfers to get there easily. Louisville has done a good job in the past for the Ryder Cup and a couple of PGA’s.

Maybe the congestion was caused by the crush of people trying to get to the course for the opportunity to see Tiger Woods tie the laces on his golf shoes.😊

Update: I’m hearing the congestion was caused by a traffic accident with a fatality

With a traffic fatality, the police would lock everything down because they probably need the state police reconstruction team to come in and do their thing.  Kind of standard.   Reports are that players were being allowed to drive onto the course.  Either the police office did not realize Scheffler was a player or Scheffler did not think he was being waved through in a timely fashion.  Scheffler is saying he misunderstood the police officer's instructions

I always dread those situations with the flashing lights, crush of traffic, the route forward compressed or diverted and trying to figure out verbal and hand signal directions from officers. I'll give Scottie a Mulligan unless video shows he purposely dragged the officer clinging to his car.

That's when you know you've made it. 

Tom Brady reached over the stone wall from his yard bordering The Country Club and handed Foley a bottle of water and a handful of almonds.

Did you see the Brady, Robert Kraft or Jonathan Kraft houses from the course?

There is a possible Holy Cross connection to the Tom Brady house. The former Pine Manor College, an abuttor, sold Tom and Giselle a couple of acres to increase their lot size and help stabilize the college finances. That may have been when former HC AD Dick Reagan was Pine Manor's CFO.

I believe they used Putterham Meadows as a parking lot for the US Open. The CC is a great course, but nothing related to it was designed with the spectator in mind.

Now know as the Robert T. Lynch Municipal Golf Course. Played there a bunch in the 80's. Got a lot of damage during the 88 Open, but got a drainage system in return as well as the repairs to the torn up areas,

Agreed, but don't think the damage was as extensive as in 88. The cars were parked in area that often was a bit waterlogged, but my memory could be faulty. I think the biggest boost for Putterham  was the 2nd hand equipment that the got donated from TCC/USGA after the events where they provided parking, and some cash to makeup for lost rounds.
