A star-studded leaderboard, Sunday pressure, a golf ball somehow hitting a cart path before getting lodged in a tree.
The final round of the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines was just one thing after another, keeping us all glued to the TV.
But one thing the major sports networks don’t show—and for good reason—are idiots who run out on to the field of play.
Rich Beem, the 2002 PGA Championship winner, captured the video of a man running on the 13th fairway, dropping two golf balls, hitting one before dancing, hitting the other one, then egging on security before attempting to run away.
Social-media rules being what they are, Beemer’s video was taken down shortly thereafter.
But we do have some photos.
