As if the final day of the U.S. Open wasn’t wild enough, on the 13th hole at Torrey Pines a fan got in on the action.
A fan - or a knucklehead, rather - ran onto the course, reached into his pocket, dropped a ball and took a swing with an iron. He danced around, took another swing and then made a break from security before they eventually detained him.

Since fans have returned to sporting events as COVID-19 restrictions are being lifted around the country, there have been a slew of unsportsmanlike conduct amongst fans - especially in the NBA and MLB. Now golf can be added to the list.
