PGA Championship: Schauffele Leads As Scheffler Overcomes Trip To Police Station With 66; Theegala Is Third

The World No: The World No. 1, Scottie Scheffler, was in handcuffs and in a police station and had a mug shot taken before being released in time to make his second-round tee time. Scheffler, admittedly shaken, shrugged off that nervousness, birdied the first hole he played and carded 5-under 66, and stayed in contention at Tied-fourth with two rounds to go in the PGA Championships.

Xander Schauffele, fresh off his record start of 62, had to settle for seven pars in his last seven holes for a 68. At 12-under 130, he was one-shot ahead of Collin Morikawa (66-65) at 11-under and two ahead of Indian-American Sahith Theegala (65-67) at 10-under. Morikawa may have had a tie for the lead as he birdied five in a row down the stretch but ended with a bogey for a 65.

Scheffler (67-66) was tied fourth alongside Belgian Thomas Detry (66-67), Mark Hubbard (65-68) and Bryson DeChambeau (68-65) at nine-under. Rory McIlroy had a double bogey in his even-par 71 and was T-22 at 5-under, while Tiger Woods had two triple bogeys and missed the cut.
