Miami’s least favorite influencer, Jack Doherty, is now banned from PGA Tour events for the “foreseeable future” after he paid a fan to yell during a golfer’s backswing at the Waste Management Phoenix Open in Scottsdale, Arizona, on Saturday.

In his livestream, Doherty walks up to two spectators at the 18th green of TPC Scottsdale and offers them $100 to yell “jackass” during Mackenzie Hughes’ pre-shot routine. The man agrees to the deal.

“I’m so excited,” Doherty says. The man then yells, “Jackass.”

Almost immediately, Hughes’ caddie walks up to them, and Doherty proclaims, “It wasn’t me.” After the caddie identified Doherty and the yelling spectator to security, police officers escorted Doherty off the course.

“I didn’t say anything,” he pleads with the officer.

“In addition to that, I trespass you from all future PGA tour tournaments,” the security officer tells Doherty. “If you show up at a PGA tour tournament again, you will be arrested.

Doherty asks, “Forever? For life?”

The man clarifies, “For the foreseeable future, until you and I can work things out.”

Unfortunately, South Floridians have had to learn of the 22-year-old against their will, thanks to his antics. This past November, the social media influencer, who moved to South Florida in 2022, was arrested on multiple charges, including resisting an officer without violence, after he stood and filmed himself in the busy 700 block of Washington Avenue in South Beach. The YouTube streamer disregarded officers’ demands to exit the street.

“You wanna be fucking funny? If you’re gonna be funny, get out of the fucking street,” a Miami Beach cop told Doherty. “I don’t know who the fuck you are, bro.”

Following the incident, Miami Beach Commissioner Joe Magazine said what everyone was thinking about Doherty’s shenanigans.

“Ensuring that entitled little shitheads like this know that if you come to Miami Beach, you will respect our city, respect our men and women in blue, and respect our laws makes our entire community better,” Magazine wrote on Instagram. “Our incredible law enforcement have [sic] my full support enforcing our laws regardless of someone’s color, social media count, bank account, or any other arbitrary measure that leads people to wrongly believe they have special entitlement in our city. Miami Beach = FAFO.”

Doherty, who has amassed 15.2 million subscribers on YouTube, first became infamous in South Florida after crashing his $200,000 McLaren on the Florida Turnpike in Cutler Bay in October 2024. The entire incident was captured on Doherty’s livestream. The influencer was looking down at his phone before he suddenly accelerated and lost control of his custom, splatter-painted McLaren 570S. A clip from the stream quickly went viral on X, as Doherty seemed more worried about his car than his bleeding cameraman.

“Bro, my whole fucking car, bro,” Doherty said. “No fucking way. Oh, my gosh. There is no fucking way.”

Florida Highway Patrol cited Doherty for driving while operating a handheld device.
