LA JOLLA, Calif. \u2014 Who says there's no tackling in golf?<\/p>\n
The post-pandemic fan madness that gripped the NBA in recent weeks has reached golf. On the 13th fairway at Torrey Pines, just before Bryson DeChambeau was about to play a shot, an intruder wearing a cape, shorts, and little else, and carrying a club and balls, raced onto the middle of the fairway and began miming hitting shots. Former tour pro and 2002 PGA Championship winner Rich Beem captured the scene:<\/p>\n

The fan apparently faked like he was going to surrender, then raced away for a few more yards until a police officer unleashed the best tackle seen in San Diego since the Chargers left town. <\/p>\n
Whether he was unsettled or not, DeChambeau double-bogeyed the 13th, effectively ending his championship chances. No word on the intruder's fate. <\/p>\n
(As always, we do not condone running onto a golf course. Manners, people.)<\/p>\n
