The Canadian's wife, Jessica, confirmed it was his club after responding to a viral video of its bizarre recovery.

A fan kindly offered to retrieve the golf club from the lake and stripped down to just his boxers and socks to go into the water.

He jumped straight into the lake and found the club before throwing it to the side and being helped out.

Fans could not believe the moment as it went viral on social media.

Hadwin completed his round with a score of 72 which was enough to qualify him for the weekend action.

After completing the round, Hadwin said: "I didn’t finish as strongly as I would have liked.

"It really put a sour taste on what could have been a pretty decent round.

"Bogeying seven for the second day in a row really gets to you."

It is not the first time the PGA No.51 star has been involved in a surprising moment during the tour.

Last year, he was tackled by security while trying to celebrate the Canadian Open with compatriot Nick Taylor.
