BROOKLINE, Mass. — Sometimes it’s nice to see the pros hit a drive where we might hit one if we played The Country Club, the host of this week’s U.S. Open in Brookline, Massachusetts, just outside Boston.
The leader, MJ Daffue, is surprising the golf world through the early portion of Friday’s second round. and was leading the tournament by one shot over a large group at 3 under.
However, his drive down the par-5 14th was a bit offline.
How offline? Well, it came to rest on the deck of a hospitality tent.
What he did next was, unlike his drive, unrelatable for the average golfer. He pulled 3-wood and blasted his second off the carpet.
Instead of us describing it to you, take a look for yourself.
"I'm coming right over you, sir."

Despite the heroics, he went on to make bogey.
