Golf fans have been left in disbelief after a PGA Tour player endured a nightmare at the Shriners Children’s Open.

Windy conditions made life difficult for the field on Friday before play was eventually suspended.

Nevertheless, Joseph Bramlett would’ve been happy with his efforts after his first nine holes, sitting at six under.

Unfortunately, things were about to take a turn on the first hole at TPC Summerlin.

Bramlett missed his ten-foot putt for birdie before going on to miss four more shot efforts. The American would go on to make a triple bogey after hitting the green in regulation.

Unsurprisingly, fans couldn’t quite believe what the 36-year-old had done.

“This is hard to watch,” wrote @JonathanKMartin.

“He missed them all on the same side. At some point, you have to realize it ain’t breaking,” @mitxhsteven added.

Another fan, @fjmona, said, “Brutal. It was as if he kept trying to lip out those putts!”

@HPirsig wrote, “Oh my, a golfing nightmare!”

Finally, @d8532211 wrote, “Good grief. I’d be traumatised for years.”

Tom Kim off-the-pace at the Shriners Children’s Open

Elsewhere at the Shriners, Tom Kim appears to have missed the chance to make PGA Tour history.

The South Korean is one under after completing his second round and looks set to miss the cut by a solitary shot.

Canadian Taylor Pendrith leads the way on ten under but has only completed six holes of his second round thus far.

Rickie Fowler is also in action and through six holes of his second 18. The American currently sits at five under, five shots back of the lead.

The round of the day on Friday went to Pierceson Coody, who made eight birdies on his way to a six-under 65.
