3-time major winner Spieth kicked things off on Saturday with a sh**ty shot. Literally. As the third round began, an early shot from the golfer ended up in a place at Oak Hill, where all the porta potties are situated. The PGA Tour’s Shot Tracer even hilariously showed the golfer’s ball sitting adjacent to half a dozen porta potties.

But how did the rest of the third round go for Spieth? After his stinker of a shot, the golfer was granted temporary obstruction relief. He then followed it up by hitting a shot toward the first green, which struck a tree and fell straight down on the ground. The PGA Tour pro eventually wrapped Saturday up with a 1-over 71.

It is safe to say that the dad jokes will follow Spieth wherever he goes, for some time at least. He may have failed to impress fans with his play so far, but the golfer has managed to breathe some hilarity into the tense tournament, albeit unintentionally.
Imagine coming out of the porta potty after an early visit following a late garbage plate and walking into Spieth trying to talk Greller into something even more catastrophic. https://t.co/3VFvYSGQ4P
