Jordan Spieth walked from the 11th green to the 12th tee box Tuesday, as Gary Woodland followed closely behind.

“How much if you make it?” Woodland asked Spieth. “$500 or $1,000?”

“$1,000,” the 2015 Masters champion said.

Spieth then set up for his tee shot and struck the wedge, which beelined to the right pin location on the famous par 3.

“Is that in?” Woodland asked as the ball was mid-flight.

“Gonna be close,” Spieth said.

Spieth’s ball struck the flag stick before ricocheting into the front bunker. Spieth, Woodland and Henrik Stenson, the third member of their pairing, shared oohs and ahhs as their applause echoed through an empty Amen Corner.

“How mad would you be if that happened Thursday,” Brennan Little, Woodland’s caddie, asked Speith.

“I wouldn’t be mad at the shot,” Jordan said. “But I’d definitely be upset with the result.”
