The wind has been brutal at the Masters all week, causing problems for all of the players. No player got it worse than Billy Horschel.
Billy Horschel watched helplessly as wind blew his ball off the green and into the water
Horschel hit his second shot on the par-5 15th hole onto the green. He was in great position and marked then replaced his ball getting ready for an eagle putt. Then the wind took over.
His ball blew back into the water hazard forcing him to take a drop and penalty stroke. Instead of putting for an eagle three, Horschel hit his fourth shot up left of the green then putted twice for a six. He likely lost two strokes just because the wind picked up and blew his ball away.
That’s about as rough as it gets.
