Friday at Valhalla has been one of the weirdest days in golf history. Somehow, it got much, much weirder this afternoon at the 10th tee, where Xander Schauffele piped a drive down the middle after re-taking the lead with a birdie at No. 9.

We’ve heard some very annoying and tired heckles before – “MASHED POTATOES”, “GET IN THE HOLE”, etc. We’ve heard some creative ones, too, like that time the guy channeled his inner Daniel Day-Lewis at the Open Championship with “I’VE ABANDONED MY CHILD!!” If you’re going to be a bozo, at least try to be a creative bozo.
What you do NOT want to do is be a bozo who is also really weird, like this dude:
It’s new, it’s creative, it’s weird, it’s possibly NSFW. Guy hit for the heckle cycle.
In fairness, it was a pretty good drive, but we’d probably go a different route if we were the heckling type. Also, Schauffele went on to birdie the hole, so there’s that.
