Torrey Pines looked more like the set of “Happy Gilmore” on Friday … ’cause Brooks Koepka hit a tee shot that landed INSIDE a shoe — and it had everyone wondering, should he have to play it as it lies?!?!?!
The wild scene all went down during the 2nd round of the Farmers Insurance Open, when Koepka smashed a drive down the right side of the fairway that crash-landed into the back of a golf cart.
As Koepka strolled down the North Course’s 16th hole … the 30-year-old quickly realized the ball actually came to rest IN a shoe that was sitting on the back of the vehicle!!!
EVERYONE was immediately reminded of the scene in “Happy Gilmore” … where Shooter McGavin lost his mind after having to hit a ball “off Frankenstein’s fat foot!”
But, fortunately for Koepka, golf’s rules actually allowed him to take a penalty-free drop and continue on.
The issue, though? Koepka did NOT want to retrieve the ball from the camera guy’s shoe … saying straight-up, “I ain’t sticking my hand in there. You can grab it out of your nasty-ass shoe.”
Koepka eventually got everything squared away and he was able to save par.
The bad news … Koepka’s round is currently sucking — and he’s now in danger of missing the cut.
Awesome par save, though!
