Golf is a huge community with new heroes emerging and unforgettable moments being created frequently. However, each one of them has a place in the massive ecosystem.

The finale of the RBC Canadian Open drafted a significant history when Taylor ended the 69-year-old drought. For nearly seven decades no Canadian had won on home soil the honorable tournament. However, that 72-foot eagle putt from the Canadian golfer signed his name in the history of the game.

In the museum, it will be presented to the spectators and each time someone comes across it, they will remember Taylor and how he revamped the past. Although, this announcement would have been kind of incomplete without Adam Hadwin‘s mention. That is exactly what the Hall of Fame did!

The account humorously paid tribute to the accidental tackle of the 35-year-old golfer. They cheekily asked Hadwin that probably the shirt he wore during the on-field smothering should be on the display as well. It just proves how amid the historical win, Hadwin managed to unintentionally steal the limelight.

And if this wasn’t enough, the Chief Sport Officer at Golf Canada took to Twitter earlier to half-joke about the incident. He suggested adding another item as memorabilia that Hadwin was carrying at the time of the tackle. This further reflects no professional is ready for Hadwin to forget the embarrassing on-course misunderstanding. However, like a true sportsperson the Canadian professional wholeheartedly participated in the exchange of words and even this time as well chimed in with his opinion buoyantly,

To the tongue-in-the-cheek comment from the renowned Canadian Golf Hall of Fame, Adam Hadwin has his own lighthearted comment ready. The Mosse Jaw native replied, “Mission accomplished!“. It is not that the exchange of tweets held much seriousness to them. But, seeing this casual dialogue between the two entities proves how great the game of golf is.
