In round three at the Hero World Challenge, Jordan Spieth made more than one wonder. With four birdies and three bogeys, Spieth made the headlines for different reasons. The 1x major champion who stands T4 on the leaderboard, hysterically, nearly putted a rock.

According to a video shared by PGA Tour on their official Instagram, a fan narrated the story of him collecting “a unique souvenir” from The Bahamas. Spieth shot his ball into a sand bunker on the first hole of round three. While taking the next shot, he made contact with a rock.

As the fan said, “he chipped this rock,” and since he didn’t have his marker, everyone suggested Spieth use the rock as the marker instead. The golfer did as suggested and later this fan asked for the rock and he gave it to him. The fan got excited to collect something memorable.
