Varner, 33, had a blood alcohol content of 0.16 percent — twice the state's legal limit, according to Mecklenburg County court records.
He was arrested on the misdemeanor charge at 7:24 p.m. ET on Thursday and released on $500 bond. He is scheduled to appear in court on Jan. 19.
Varner lives in Charlotte and grew up in Gastonia, N.C. He attended East Carolina University before turning pro in 2012, earning about $10.7 million in 191 starts on the PGA Tour before jumping to LIV Golf in August 2022.
He earned $4 million for winning the LIV Golf tournament in Washington, D.C., in May. Earlier this month, Varner moved from captain Bubba Watson's RangeGoats GC team to Dustin Johnson's 4Aces.
