William Mouw was cruising along at the American Express—until he came across the tournament's infamous bunker on the 16th hole.
Golf can be aggravating, even for professionals—and William Mouw was reminded of that the hard way on Friday afternoon.
But it wasn't so much how Mouw reached a baker's dozen. It was the way in which he did so that made for a particularly tough watch. From there, Mouw experienced his own Groundhog's Day moment. He sent the ball from the bunker over the back of the green, only to fire his fourth shot right back into the bunker. He failed to mount the massive cliffs of the bunker on his next two shots and then would repeat the same sequence of events from his third and fourth shots—over the back of the green, back into the bunker.
