Overview
- After air-mailing a chip into the water on the par-3 15th, Horschel took a triple-bogey 6 and turned to the grandstand to challenge a heckler.
- Video captured Horschel asking, “Who said that?” and telling the spectator to read his full comments before judging his views on PGA National.
- Security informed Horschel on the 16th that they had removed the spectator for repeated comments, which Horschel said he did not request.
- Horschel finished round two with a 73 to make the cut at even par and later posted on X, “The Bear got me today!” in reference to the Bear Trap.
- The exchange has renewed discussion about acceptable crowd conduct and the pressure of PGA National’s Jack Nicklaus–designed 15–17 stretch.
