The Korn Ferry Tour is a professional golf tournament series that serves as a development pathway and stepping stone for golfers who want to make it onto the PGA Tour. The tour provides a platform for professional golfers to gain experience, improve their skills and secure a place on the more prestigious PGA Tour.

Qualification for the PGA Tour via the Korn Ferry Tour is based on money ranking or performance in the Korn Ferry Tour Finals. Each year, the top players on the tour receive PGA Tour cards, which for many golfers is the main goal of their participation. The tournaments on the Korn Ferry Tour take place mainly in the United States, but attract players from all over the world. This makes it an international stage for up-and-coming talent.

The name of the tour has changed several times over the years and depends on the respective main sponsor. Since 2019, Korn Ferry, a global management consulting firm, has been the name sponsor. The structure and format of the tournaments on the Korn Ferry Tour are very similar to those of the PGA Tour, with four rounds over four days, starting on a Thursday and a cut after the first two rounds.

A fatal accident occurred on Shelbyville Road near Valhalla Golf Club, the site of the 2024 PGA Championship, on Friday morning (5:00 a.m. local time). According to Louisville police, the male pedestrian was hit by a shuttle bus while crossing the road. The start of round 2 has therefore been delayed.

Tragic accident before round 2 of the PGA Championship

Here’s what police had to say about the accident: ‘At approximately 5:00 a.m. this morning, LMPD police were notified of a collision between a pedestrian and a bus. Our preliminary investigation revealed that an adult male pedestrian was crossing Shelbyville Road from southbound to northbound when he was struck by a shuttle bus travelling eastbound in the bus mandatory middle lane. As a result, the pedestrian suffered fatal injuries and was pronounced dead at the scene.’

The PGA of America, which postponed the start of the second round until 14:35 German time due to the temporary road closure, later announced in a statement that the fatality was an employee who worked for a supplier to the tournament. They expressed their condolences to the families:

“This morning we were devastated to learn that a worker with one of our vendors was tragically struck and killed by a shuttle bus outside Valhalla Golf Club. This is heartbreaking to all of us involved with the PGA Championship. We extend our sincere condolences to their family and loved ones.”

Scottie Scheffler: ‘Puts everything in perspective’

In the aftermath of the accident, there was a lot of commotion because of a misunderstanding between Scottie Scheffler and the Louisville police due to the police barriers, which resulted in the two-time major winner being arrested. Despite the inconvenience this incident caused Scheffler, the new father emphasised in his statement how much the loss of a life puts everything else that happened that morning into perspective.

‘Of course, all of us involved in the tournament extend our deepest sympathies to the family of the man who passed away in the earlier accident this morning. It truly puts everything in perspective.’
