Is it too late to add Dave Johnson to Team USA’s Ryder Cup squad?
There’s no chance you know who Dave Johnson is — well, you might know a Dave Johnson, but not this guy — but he should be the next American hero.
Johnson stole the show at the Ryder Cup on Thursday, one day before the actual international golf tournament got under way.
The (presumably) American golf fan was taking in a practice round at Hazeltine National Golf Club, where the Europeans were putting on one of the greens. Apparently Johnson was heckling the Euros (specifically Rory McIlroy, according to tweets), and they didn’t take too kindly to his jeers. So they challenged Johnson to make the putt.
Johnson made his way down from the gallery to the green and was given a putter. As he stepped up to the putt, Justin Rose slapped a $100 bill on the ground to make things even more interesting.
Then this happened.
McIlroy also was rolling on his phone and captured this view of the clutch putt.
Actual Ryder Cup competition starts Friday.
