During the Presidents Cup at Medinah Country Club, a gallery member interrupted Scottie Scheffler's match with Colombian player Nico Echavarria. As Echavarria took his shot on the 14th hole, an individual yelled, "Go Scottie!" from the stands. Upon witnessing this, Scheffler addressed the disruptive fan, sternly declaring, "There's no place for that."
In response to the outburst, Scheffler conceded a 32-foot par putt to Echavarria, displaying a classy gesture that served as both an apology and a commentary on the unacceptable behavior of some gallery members.
