Overview
- During Friday’s second round at the 16th hole, Doherty offered $100 to a bystander who yelled “jackass” in Mackenzie Hughes’s backswing.
- Tournament security and a Scottsdale police officer escorted Doherty and the cooperating spectator off the course and issued trespass orders.
- An on-site official told Doherty he is barred from all future PGA Tour tournaments, with the ban described on camera as in effect for the foreseeable future pending review.
- The officer warned that returning to a PGA Tour event could lead to arrest.
- Video shared by NUCLR Golf drew wide attention, and Doherty later dismissed the punishment on camera as he derided the event, while the PGA Tour had not released a broader public statement.
