We've seen crazy shots from the water several times this week. Now we've seen a wild one into the water.
During Friday's second round of the Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches, Billy Horschel was up against the grandstands in the rough, this after his tee shot on the 153-yard, par-3 15th went about 20 or so yards deep and left of the green.
He hit out from there, but his wedge flew the green and caused a splash.
Moments later, Horschel got into it a bit with a fan in the grandstands.
"Who said that?" he said. "I mean, I guess you guys gotta make you feel good about yourself with a comment like that, don't you?" he added while digging into his bag for another ball. The fan's comment was potentially about Horschel's lengthy opinion on PGA National and the decision to overseed the golf course. "Maybe you should read the entire comment," Horschel said before walking back to the drop zone, about two-thirds of the way back to the tee box.
Happy Hour, Smylie Kaufman's on-course live set for Golf Channel, was on the 15th hole on Friday and the cameras and mics picked up the exchange.
By the time Horschel holed out, he had a triple-bogey 6 on the hole. He then parred 16 and bogeyed 17 and 18 to shoot 73. He's even par through 36 and looks to make the cut to the weekend.
