Brandtbert J. Brudenell, 19, was arrested Thursday evening at TPC Scottsdale and booked on suspicion of criminal trespassing, refusing to provide his name truthfully, and underage alcohol consumption, Scottsdale police told The Arizona Republic. According to police, Brudenell was found walking near the 2nd hole after the course had closed and refused to leave. Security personnel reported that he attempted to flee from them before officers arrived.

Police told The Arizona Republic that Brudenell is the man seen in a viral video filmed at the Phoenix Open. Brudenell lost his job after the video gained attention online. The video shows him talking about his belief that Mexicans at the border should have their throats "sliced," shortly after saying "Heil Hitler" and appearing to mimic white supremacist rhetoric.

19 and drunk in public? Whatever. You're just dumb.

19 and racist? What the hell.

Phoenix Open is sponsored by "Waste Management." Often referred to as "Wasted Management Open" due to the prevalence of alcohol consumption on-site. Bruh.
