"Fast and Furious 11: Augusta Drift" LIV Golf star's Porsche spotted SMASHED up!
A £360,000 customised Porsche said to be owned by LIV Golf star Patrick Reed has sold at auction.
A £360,000 customised Porsche said to be owned by LIV Golf League star and golf's public enemy No. 1 Patrick Reed has been auctioned on a salvage website.
The 2019 Porsche 911 GT2 RS was listed by Copart, a car auction company that resells new, used and salvaged cars.
You can see pictures below of the vehicle looking more than a bit banged up, prompting golf fans to speculate over what exactly happened.
One person on social media joked: "Fast and Furious 11: Augusta Drift".
The pictures really do look horrific. I mean, the front bumper is completely destroyed, exposing the wheel.
Elsewhere, both sides of the car have received extensive damage. Other snaps show the airbags went off in the apparent collision.
A report from Joe Pompliano states that the collision happened with just 360 miles on the clock.
After winning the 2018 Masters, Patrick Reed bought himself a $450,000 Porsche 911 GT2 RS.
There are only 1,000 of these cars in the US & his had a Masters-themed paint job & yellow calipers.

It has not been officially confirmed the car belonged to Reed. But there are reportedly only 1,000 of these made in the U.S.
The photographs of the smashed up supercar also show the distinct Masters-themed paint job, along with yellow calipers.
Reed confirmed he bought the car back in 2019, a year after clinching his maiden major.
The U.S. golfer proudly captioned a photograph:
He still had plenty of cash leftover when he bought it, considering he won $1.98m for his triumph.
Oh, and Reed now plays LIV Golf events and competes for a $4m top prize every time he tees it up. He's also guaranteed a minimum pay day of $120,000 for every tournament.
He is said to have signed a multimillion dollar deal with the circuit last June.
The auction website states the car was sold at auction for $132,000.

This news comes shortly after Reed had another strong performance at Augusta National at this year's Masters, which was won by Jon Rahm.
The golfer, nicknamed Captain America, finished inside the top five along with fellow LIV 'rebels' Brooks Koepka and Phil Mickelson.
Reed is also an honorary member of the DP World Tour and it was just before he teed off at the 87th Masters that he learned LIV players had lost their arbitration case with the European-based circuit.
When he heard the news, he questioned the timing of the announcement.
Reed was in the news again earlier this week when equipment supremo Bob Parsons revealed why he didn't renew the golfer's contract with PXG.
