Nick Faldo says he will run naked across Augusta if DeChambeau drives 1st green

I don't think anyone would be complaining about golf hoodies if we saw this on Thursday...

CBS Golf commentator and analyst Sir Nick Faldo has vowed to run across Augusta National without any clothes on if Bryson DeChambeau drives the first green.

DeChambeau made it clear his intentions were to get even longer after winning the US Open at Winged Foot and we may even see the debut of his new 48-inch driver that he has been testing.

In a recent conference call, members of the CBS golf team were discussing DeChambeau's length at Augusta and the question was asked whether or not he could drive the green at the par-4 first hole, which plays 455-yards uphill.

"Bryson will not be driving the first at 445," said Faldo.

"If he does, I will leap out my tower and run around naked round Augusta National."

"Let's not do that," added fellow announcer Dottie Pepper.



"Well, Lance, you were trying to figure out where to position your cameras," CBS Golf broadcaster Jim Nantz said to coordinating producer Lance Barrow. "And you said we were going to find out, come Thursday. Maybe we just found out we might want to have one close by the 18th tower."



"Do it from a distance," said Faldo. "One of the cameras at the 15th, please."

It seems unlikely that DeChambeau will reach the first green, but golf writer Dave Tindall tweeted an update on Tuesday about DeChambeau's practice round and he revealed just how short the US Open champion is making some of the holes at Augusta.

DeChambeau only needed a sand wedge into the first green, so you never know Sir Nick, with a bit of wind behind him, you might be regretting your promise come Thursday...
