Sunday’s final round of the Rocket Classic was a thriller, with Michael Thorbjornsen getting his first PGA Tour win after shooting a scintillating seven-under 63. There was one awesome moment from Sunday’s action that went viral, and it had nothing to do with a good shot by one of the best players in the world. Instead, it was a dreaded shank, something us amateurs are used to seeing, and one fan’s reaction to witnessing it was one of the greatest hot-mic moments in quite some time.

Playing from the rough and standing just 122 yards from the hole, Kirk hit a hosel rocket 85 yards right into some fescue rough. It was a stunning thing to see, and one guy in the crowd had the perfect reaction to it. “What the f--- was that!?” he could be heard yelling on the CBS broadcast. Here’s how that played out: Been there. pic.twitter.com/SmEWMRdWv6— PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) August 2, 2026I think I replayed that video at least 10 times after watching the shot live on TV. From the fan yelling to the shot tracer going way right and Kirk just standing there watching his chances of winning sail away—it really had it all . You just don’t expect to see a PGA Tour player hit such an awful shot, and when it happens, it kind of makes you feel good because chances are that’s happened to you one or twice (or more, let’s be honest) on the course.Kirk had to take a drop for his next shot after finding his ball in the fescue and went on to make a double-bogey six on the hole. He finished tied for eighth and made a cool $252,500 for the week, which has to feel good. But he’ll probably remember that one bad shot for a quite a while. Fans found that shank to be very relatable: Did this three times yesterday myself.
