A controversial livestreamer has been barred from attending PGA Tour events indefinitely after being trespassed from the Waste Management Phoenix Open, according to a person familiar with the matter, though the tour has declined to publicly confirm any specific disciplinary action.

Security and law enforcement removed Jack Doherty from the tournament grounds on Friday after he appeared to pay a spectator to shout during a player’s pre-shot routine, according to videos circulating online and accounts of the incident.
