He was placed on the cart as two people were checking on him and taking him away from the field while Tom was sent for medical assistance.
It is still unclear what the medical emergency was.
A statement from the PGA of America said: “In today’s Ryder Cup Celebrity Match, actor and musician Tom Felton experienced a medical incident on the course while participating for Europe.
“He was transported to a local hospital for treatment. No further details are available.”
