The Florida native Sam Ryder reckoned that it’s pretty crazy as he was still coming down from the adrenaline rush. 

“It was pretty crazy. I was looking kind of just out to the right and wanted to kind of come down around [Kirk’s] ball and maybe it was an accidental one-yard pull or something, but it didn’t look like it was moving too fast on the camera when I saw it, but in the air, it just looked perfect,” Ryder said.

“It was honestly amazing how quickly they were able to get everything up. There was debris everywhere and, you know, it was such a fun, exciting thing and I didn’t want any kind of negativity to kind of overshadow something that was really so much fun and happy and everything. But the crew did such a good job,” he added. “How quickly they got it all cleaned up was pretty incredible. So, hat’s off to them for being able to do that and hopefully, it didn’t create too much of a logjam with the pace of play, but all in all, I think it was a pretty positive thing.”
