Swedish golfer Ludvig Åberg currently leads the PGA tournament, which carries a winning purse of $25,000,000.
St. Johns County Sheriff Rob Hardwick said the suspect, whom he identified as Christian Barrios, 32, shot two people multiple times at about 10:30 p.m. Friday in the parking lot of Walgreens in what he called a domestic violence situation. The store is located about a mile from the course.
Hardwick said at a news conference it had been "a long night" for his deputies.
Authorities say he was captured at about 8 a.m. Saturday in Nassau County, the far northeastern county in Florida located an hour north of the TPC Sawgrass.
