"Where’s all the Jon Rahm port-a-potties?" - PGA Tour Pro takes a leak as Keegan Bradley lines up putt sparking humorous reactions from golf fans
Keegan Bradley was unwittingly part of a humorous situation during the first round of the 2024 Sony Open in Hawaii. The event brought back one of the most popular sentences of 2023 in the world of golf and also numerous hilarious reactions from fans.
The situation occurred while Keegan Bradley lined up one of his putts during the first round. Another pro participating in the tournament had to "cope" with an emergency and took a leak on a nearby tree. However, this was broadcast live on Golf Channel.
Sports Illustrated journalist Andy Nesbitt posted the video on his X account (formerly Twitter) and provoked the most varied jokes from fans. The post has reached more than 330,000 views.
"Feels like a golfer in the background needed some relief."
Let's take a look at some of the reactions on X:
"Where’s all the Jon Rahm port-a-potties? Did they get a full refund with 30 days after he went to LIV?"
What happened behind Keegan Bradley's back brought to the fans' memory Jon Rahm's well-known take on the subject.
Last August, a journalist asked Rahm to mention the 'one change' he would make on the PGA Tour and this was the Spaniard's response (via Golf Digest):
"I can tell you right now my priorities are a lot lower than what a lot of people would think. I know this is going to sound very stupid, but as simple as having a freaking Port-a-Potty on every hole. I know it sounds crazy, but I can't choose when I have to go to the bathroom. I've told the Tour this many times, as simple as that."
How was the first round of the Sony Open in Hawaii for Keegan Bradley?
Bradley had an impressive outing during the first round of the Sony Open in Hawaii. He scored a 3-under 67 and his performance included six birdies and three bogeys.
This placed Keegan Bradley T16 after the first 18 holes, tied with 12 other players. With that score, they finished five strokes behind leader Cameron Davis.
Keegan Bradley tends to make fans uncomfortable by taking his time to execute his putts, but the truth is that it pays off for him. During the first round of the Sony Open, he used just 24 putts (ranked second in the field) and 1.60 putts per Green in Regulation (3rd).
Bradley was also good with his driver. Although his longest drive of the round was only 344 yards, he consistently managed over 300 yards. His average driving distance at the event was 313 yards.
Bradley's main problem of the day was his accuracy, as he only managed to hit nine of 14 fairways (64.29%). He also only managed to hit 10 of 18 greens in Regulation (55%), well below the tournament average.
