No. 1 seed Rory McIlroy defeated Boo Weekley 3-and-2 in his first-round match at the Match Play Championship in Arizona, despite some trouble on the par-4 15th. An unlucky spectator tried to dodge the ball, but ended up falling in cactus. His drive sailed well left of the fairway and came to rest right next to a rock, making any safe escape nearly impossible. McIlroy simply tried to knock the ball forward and out of trouble, but his errant shot caused one man to fall into a patch of jumping cholla. A handful of people brought out knives and whatever tools they had to pry the cacti off the spectator’s back.

McIlroy conceded the hole. His instant reaction to the shot was priceless.
