Justin Thomas hit the worst chip shot right into an Open pot bunker

Oof. It hasn’t been the best of years for Justin Thomas.

And his first round at the British Open? Not great.

There was one shot in particular that stood out. He was right behind one of those super tough pot bunkers at Royal Liverpool — ones that golfers like Christo Lamprecht have had to navigate — and he tried to go over it, which is probably the right move.

But, oops. He went too short with it, the ball hit the top of the bunker and in it went.
