But it was intercepted by a much older fan, who then did a runner with DeChambeau's ball.

The American golfer immediately turned his golf club towards the fan to point him out to the crowd.

He then yelled: "Hey, hey, hey! Give that ball back!"

The sheepish fan eventually complied and returned the ball to the youngster.
