  • One PGA Tour pro learned a valuable lesson after he smashed his club at The Valspar Championship and caused a sprinkler to spray water everywhere.

During the third round of the PGA Tour's AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, a sprinkler head exploded near the 14th green, startling players and spectators. The incident occurred as golfers were finishing their rounds, with the explosion sending water and debris into the air. This unexpected event caused a brief halt in play as officials assessed the situation. No injuries were reported, but the explosion added an unusual twist to the tournament, which was already dealing with challenging weather conditions. The PGA Tour confirmed that the malfunction was due to a pressure issue within the irrigation system, and steps were taken to ensure it wouldn't happen again.
