Scottie Scheffler was on the 18th green looking for the victory when multiple protesters rushed onto the course in Cromwell, Connecticut.
The protesters let off gas canisters as police sprinted to apprehend them.
Golf fans rained boos on the protesters as others yelled profanities in disapproval as authorities tried to get the protesters off the green as fast as possible.
Some of the protesters wore T-shirts with the extinction symbol on the back, which is a circle representing the planet and a stylized hourglass that represents running out of time.
