World No. 10 Jordan Spieth, is having quite a time at Oak Hill in Rochester, New York. The golfer, who entered into the PGA Championship chasing a career grand slam, kicked things off with a dismal opening round on Thursday.
On his second day out at the field, his 2-over 72 left him inside the cut line but barely, at 5-over and ten shots off the lead. Even the weekend tee time that the 29-year-old worked so hard to secure got off to a unique start, evoking hysterical reactions from golf fans!
Jordan Spieth opens Saturday with a shot into the porta-potty
3-time major winner Spieth kicked things off on Saturday with a sh**ty shot. Literally. As the third round began, an early shot from the golfer ended up in a place at Oak Hill, where all the porta potties are situated. The PGA Tour’s Shot Tracer even hilariously showed the golfer’s ball sitting adjacent to half a dozen porta potties.
But how did the rest of the third round go for Spieth? After his stinker of a shot, the golfer was granted temporary obstruction relief. He then followed it up by hitting a shot toward the first green, which struck a tree and fell straight down on the ground. The PGA Tour pro eventually wrapped Saturday up with a 1-over 71.
Fans react to Jordan Spieth’s stinker
Oak Hill has proved to be a daunting course for many, with many big names like Matt Fitzpatrick, Jason Day, Talor Gooch, and Rickie Fowler surprisingly missing the cut. Amidst the sheer tension, Spieth’s porta-potty shot has brought much relief to golf fans, eliciting hilarious reactions from them. Many jokes even came at the expense of an injury-laden golfer, who has visibly struggled on the challenging course over the past few days.
