I saw that a few times afterwards. They had him in the booth and he was laguhing at himself bigtime. He said "I shanked it so bad, I had 96 yards for my second shot on a 218 yrd par 3".

Then he said on the next hole, he asked his caddy what his yardage was, and he bowed his head and slowly said 214 yrs. (the same club the 4 iron) Was he ever laughing it up with the boys in the booth.

That was one the shots at the 17th i actually could follow and I couldn't believe that it was going it absolute wrong direction from the hole. I then quickly ran over to where his ball was and was able to hear all the joking he was doing w/ the crowd and his caddy. After his caddy walked it out the first time he asked him how many yards and the caddy said 86 give or take 20 yards. Clarke then was trying to see the flag so he started to climb up a surrounding hill and the people at the top said, "can't see the hole from here either" everybody was cracking up. I never got a chance to see where the ball landed but i guess it was a pretty good shot since people were clapping. The shot was the highlight of the tourny for me since it was like something i would do and showed their human side.
