Rickie Fowler went for the green, wound up with a layup

Rickie Fowler attempted to go for the green in two on No. 13, but the result wasn’t exactly what he expected.

After driving the ball into the middle of the fairway on the par-5 13th hole, Rickie Fowler attempted to go for the green in two. He came up just a bit short.

Instead of heading for the green, Fowler’s second shot went into a crowd of spectators where it hit a tree/fan/post and shot back into the fairway. The ball rolled just short of the water hazard, with the end result being a really poor layup.

To his credit, Fowler managed to come away with a par. He just took an interesting route to get there.
