Heckler nails 12-foot putt at Ryder Cup practice round

CHASKA, Minn. (KMSP) - An American heckler was challenged to put-up or shut-up after saying he could putt better than Rory McIlroy and his Team Europe mates during a Ryder Cup practice round.

The Europeans were all struggling with their putts on the 6th green during a Thursday practice round at Hazeltine National Golf Club in Chaska, Minnesota. Team Europe challenged the American to give it a go, with Justin Rose even dropping a $100 bill on the green. The heckler, identified as David Johnson of North Dakota, gladly stepped onto the green, hushed the crowd...and nailed the 12-foot putt! Reading on the app? Watch the video at http://bit.ly/2deik5k
