Did Jordan Spieth intentionally hit patron in the *ehem* with his putter at The Masters?!
Jordan Spieth went viral after a video emerged of him appearing to hit a patron with his putter during the final round of The Masters.
A video of Jordan Spieth has gone viral after it appeared the three-time major champion hit a patron with his putter at The Masters.
But was it intentional?
The incident occurred during the final round of the 2025 Masters, as Spieth, 31, made his way to the practice putting green before teeing off in the final round at famed Augusta National.
As the 2015 Masters champion made his way through the rows of patrons, he held his putter in one hand while fist-bumping patrons with the other.
One man held out a fist to greet Spieth, who returned the gesture before tapping the patron with his putter in the ehem.
The man instantly doubled over as Spieth carried on his way while stifling a laugh.
Scroll down to watch the video, and learn who exactly the man was...

The patron Spieth jokingly ‘attacked’ was believed to in fact be his manager, Jay Danzi.
It wasn't the first time at the 2025 Masters that Spieth went viral.
Spieth blasted Augusta National for telling golfers not to talk about mud balls after the third round.
He went on to chalk up a top-20 finish at The Masters on Sunday.
Spieth narrowly made the cut on 2-over par but managed to resurrect his performance with a 69 and a 70 on the weekend to finish T14.
Still trying to find form after battling with a wrist injury that has plagued him for the past two years, Spieth has only managed two top-10 finishes on the PGA Tour this season.
His last win came at the 2022 RBC Heritage, where he defeated fellow American Patrick Cantlay in a playoff.
Spieth, who won 10 times on the PGA Tour between 2015 and 2017, including three major titles, will be in the field at this year's RBC Heritage, which begins on Thursday.
His best performance this year came at the Waste Management Phoenix Open where he finished tied for fourth, but he was still eight shots behind the winner Thomas Detry.
The former World No.1 has now slipped to 58th on the Official World Golf Ranking.
He has made small progress in recent months, however, given he was outside the top 80 in January 2025.
With the Ryder Cup looming this September, it's believed Spieth is off the team until he plays his way on it.
Spieth has been a mainstay on Team USA at the Ryder Cup, having played every event since 2014.
However, in the 2023 Ryder Cup in Rome, he joined Scottie Scheffler and Rickie Fowler in not winning a single match.
Spieth only managed to achieve two ties in Rome.
