Xander Schauffele’s tee shot on the par-5 eighth hole at Augusta National appeared to come to rest in somebody’s merchandise bag.
Schauffele used a tee to mark the spot, removed the ball and then handed off the bag to a woman in a pink and white outfit.
He was able to play on without penalty and made par.
Schauffele finished the front nine in 1 under in the first round of the Masters.
He nearly made a birdie from a bunker on No. 9, splashing out to within a few inches of the hole.
