Johnny Keefer joked that playing partner Michael Brennan was about to go viral after his shirtless shot at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans blew up on social media.

Keefer said he was impressed that Brennan kept his trousers so clean despite the swamp splash, and said that type of incident is why the Zurich Classic can be such a fun event.
“He went into the locker room, cleaned himself up a little bit more,” said Keefer. “I mean, I just think that that’s kind of part of this event. I feel like usually if we were just playing this in a practice round, he probably would have just picked up.
