TLDR:
- Adam Hadwin, known for staying dry at The Players Championship, had a rough time on the water at TPC Sawgrass.
- After losing balls and a club in the water, Hadwin’s wife found humor in his frustration.
Golfer Adam Hadwin, a consistent performer at The Players Championship, faced a challenging round at TPC Sawgrass when the water hazards claimed two of his balls and even a club. Despite his strong start, a double-bogey at the iconic par-three 17th hole broke his streak of avoiding the water over his 28 previous visits. Frustration turned to fury for Hadwin when his approach shot on the 18th hole ended up in the lake along with his thrown 8-iron.
His wife, Jessica, found amusement in the situation and humorously rated his club throw a 10/10 in terms of aesthetics. Despite the setbacks, Hadwin managed to finish the round with a cookie decorating session with his daughter.
Callaway sent a replacement 8-iron to Hadwin before his next round, showing support for the golfer. This isn’t the first time Jessica has light-heartedly teased her husband, as she previously joked about an incident at the Canadian Open. In the ongoing tournament, other players like Beau Hossler made history with the 1000th ball in the water at the 17th hole since tracking began.
