The USGA had a thoughtful gift prepared for PGA Tour winner Adam Hadwin when he arrived in California on Monday, just a day after the 32-year-old was mistakenly brought down by safety at the RBC Canadian Open.
In a viral video shared on social media, Hadwin was shot down for safety after showering fellow Canadian Nick Taylor with champagne after sinking a 72-foot putt to win it all.

Security seemed to quickly realize that Hadwin was not the overzealous fan they initially thought he was and allowed him to continue celebrating on the green.
