A security guard, appearing to mistake Hadwin for an invading member of the gallery, skirted around Taylor to take down the bottle-wielding golfer, driving him to the floor of the 18th green with a tackle.
Sinking the longest putt of his PGA Tour career on the fourth hole of a nail-biting playoff, the 35-year-old had just ended the 69-year wait for a Canadian golfer to win the Canadian Open in the most astonishing way imaginable. The celebrations matched the moment on Sunday. As Toronto’s Oakdale Golf and Country club crowd erupted, their home hero had just enough time to raise his fist in victory before he was wrapped up in a hug by caddie Dave Markle.
“Hahahahaha man down!!!!!!” said two-time major champion Justin Thomas, while English golfer Tyrrell Hatton added: “Praying for Adam Hadwin, what a tackle.” ‘Everything’ The incident added another layer of spectacle to a day that had already overflowed with drama, and one that will live long in the memory for Taylor.
