Rory Mcllroy was in the middle of a practice round at the National Golf Club in Minnesota, where crowds gathered to watch him and other players practice. Once he reached the 6th hole, he ran into some problems and kept missing a short putt on the green several times.
A heckler from the crow shouted out that he could do it better, so Rory accepted the challenge and had him come down from the gallery so he could back up his smack talk. Fellow golfer Justin Rose upped the ante by promising a $100 if the heckler made it. Well the heckler gladly took the challenge and calmly drained the 12 foot putt while wearing jeans and flip flops.
The crowd erupted and Rory had to give him props after that. Nice work heckler guy with flip flops!
