Schwartzel's ball becomes fish food at LIV Golf Bedminster
On Sunday at the LIV Golf Bedminster event, Charl Schwartzel faced an unexpected predicament when his golf ball appeared to be consumed by a fish in the water near the seventh green. Schwartzel's tee shot from the seventh hole, a 134-yard par-three, landed in the pond, where a camera captured the ball being plucked from the water by a fish.
As a result, Schwartzel was penalized a stroke and ended up with a bogey on the hole. Despite this, he finished the tournament tied for second place, with Chilean Joaquin Niemann emerging as the winner.
