The first round of the Players Championship has been a very wet one already as we’ve seen a ton of tee shots on the legendary par-3 17th hole land in the water.
We told you earlier about Kevn Na’s disaster of a time on that hole in which he chipped in for an 8 after hitting three shots in the water. He later withdrew from the tournament with a back injury.
Well, a little later in the day Byeong Hun An walked over to the 17 tee and made Na’s 8 look like nothing. An hit four balls in the water and ended up with an 11, which is the second-highest score to ever be recorded on the island hole (during the Players Championship, I’m sure amateurs who have played the course have fared worse).
An had the perfect tweet after his round, though, as he was able to make fun of himself a bit.

An then made double-bogey on the 18th hole, meaning he needed 17 strokes to play the final two holes. He finished his round at 11 over.
