‘Must be Investigated’: Indecent Act by Jordan Spieth at Augusta National Divides Golf Community.
The video captured Spieth hitting a fan in the crotch with his club. Jordan Spieth tags someone in the n**s with his club wrote NUCLR Golf on X, and well, as one would expect, fans on the internet started losing their collective minds over it. The man who got hit bent over, possibly in surprise or pain, while the golfer walked away with a smile. But this is not the golfer’s only antic at the Masters. What else did he do?
When asked about his performance, Spieth had blamed mud balls. “My iron play killed me the last two days, and to be brutally honest with you, it was primarily mud balls. It’s just so frustrating because you can’t talk about them here. You’re not supposed to talk about them.” While the course may look clear, if the grass is mowed in the direction of the tee boxes, it results in the golf balls digging in and becoming muddy. But coming back to the golfer’s incident with the patron, it also reminded us of a 2017 incident.
Yes, there wasn’t much Jordan Spieth could do after he fell 10 strokes behind Rory Mcllroy, but isn’t golf about hitting ba-s anyway? It seems the former stayed focused on that thought and tried to get in more shots, even in between actual golf shots! What are we talking about? Well, in the latest video posted by NUCLR Golf on X, it seems like while going for his tee time for the final round, Spieth was seen fist-bumping and handshaking the patrons for good luck, but what seemed like a normal interaction turned into something that would be discussed more than his Masters performance!
You see, the golfer had won the British Open, and post that, he playfully hit his caddie in the nether regions.
However, there is a golfer who had an unfortunate incident in 2013. Back then, Chi-Chi Rodriguez was filming Golf Channel’s Big Break NFL and attempted to hit a glass pane as part of a challenge, but things didn’t go as planned. Instead of hitting the glass, Chi-Chi’s ball ricocheted off in an unfortunate direction, hitting him in the crotch—a moment that was certainly uncomfortable, but thankfully he escaped without injury.
It was a close call for everyone involved, especially Chi-Chi, but in Spieth’s case, it was at the expense of a patron, and the internet claims it could have been Spieth’s manager, Jay Danzi.
Golf fans are divided over Jordan Spieth’s actions at Augusta National!
Golf fans are simple creatures, but when it comes to voicing their thoughts, they never back down. “This must be investigated,” mentioned one fan, in line with the decorum that is followed at the Masters. However, many were speculating that the golfer probably knew the man who got hit by him. “He definitely knows that guy,” , one wrote while the other quipped, “Cleary a friend.”
Although that seems like a plausible situation, the golfer hasn’t actually confirmed anything of the sort yet.
Some people found the incident hilarious, with comments like, “Lmfao that’s a knee slapper lol” and, “I hope he goes back and signs balls for him!” While we can’t say for sure if there were any autographs given this time, Jordan Spieth has certainly made up for past on-course blunders. For instance, during the CJ Cup Byron Nelson last year, one of his shots hit a fan’s elbow and bounced back into the fairway, leaving the fan with a noticeable welt. In a thoughtful gesture, Spieth gave the fan a signed ball along with a $20 bill, jokingly saying, “Beers on me.”
On the topic of autographed golf balls, did you know there’s someone who actually holds a Guinness World Record for the largest collection? By 2016, Joe Galiardi had amassed 425 signed golf balls, a hobby he began after meeting Arnold Palmer in 1989, which ignited his passion for collecting signatures from golf legends.
