SHEBOYGAN, Wis. — If they handed out trophies for viral video, Matt Jones would have that prize wrapped up. Yes, his pitching wedge off the blue carpet in the hospitality tent near the ninth fairway was one to watch again and again.
Problem was, that wasn't nearly the worst trouble he found himself in Saturday at the PGA Championship.
The Aussie's fun, funny afternoon spent atop the leaderboard turned into something much different — and worse — when the sun started setting over Whistling Hills.
Jones never really got control of that swing that caused him to land his tee shot on the artificial turf in the Ninth Hole Skyboxes.
