One Of Us - Adam Hadwin Chucks His Club Into The LACC Bushes, Climbs Up To Retrieve It Himself Because He's A 'Good Canadian Kid'

Tough, tough week for Adam Hadwin. Remember it started with him getting dummied on the 18th green in Canada as he just tried to celebrate with Nick Taylor: 

He even had the USGA making fun of the situation as he tried to get ready for the US Open: 

Fast forward to Friday and Hadwin is fighting to stay on the right side of the cut line. He went +2, finished +2 for the first two days and made it but not without this club throw. I appreciate it. We've all been there. Weekend golfers, scratch golfers, guys who play once a summer in a scramble. You've thrown a club once in your life. My go-to isn't the throw it's the angry after swing. But you've likely thrown a club at least once in your golf career if you've played multiple times. 

It happens! Then you have to do the walk of shame to go pick it up and get ready to hit the ball you just duffed into the shit on your left. But Hadwin is a good Canadian kid. He could have made his caddie go do it. Decided not to because he's a good Canadian kid. That's called Canadian nice where I come from. That's actually called walking it off. Seen that move many a times from guys I play with who refuse to get back in the cart and opt to walk the 150 yards because they are pissed. Everyone deals with it in their own way. 

We started to see some carnage yesterday. Nobody sniffed 8-under, the way a US Open should be. Today should be even more. Saturday is typically notorious for US Open carnage. Pin placements are brutal today:

Give me more club throws. I want to see guys pissed after shots and taking a breath after a bogey putt that goes in. Have a week Adam Hadwin, the PIP should help here.
