In the first round of the Thailand Golf Championship, often temperamental Spaniard Sergio Garcia decided his 4-iron needed a good cleaning.
On the par-3 eighth hole, Garcia hit a wayward tee shot on the hole and would ultimately card a double bogey en route to carding a four-over, 76.
Moments after the shot, Garcia went Roy McAvoy ala 'Tin Cup' with one of his clubs.
However, instead of breaking clubs over his knee, he launched his 4-iron off into the water hazard, giving the gallery a good laugh out of what ended up being an overall bad start for Garcia.
Garcia ended the round in a tie for 99th place, 16 shots behind the lead of Lee Westwood, who is lighting the course up in Thailand.
No word yet on if anyone retrieved Garcia's 4-iron from the hazard. But I would keep an eye on eBay the next few days, just to make sure.
