The 2021 US Open had everything<\/a> in a wild final round, including a streaker at Torrey Pines.<\/p>\n

On the 13th hole, where defending champion Bryson DeChambeau was attempting to climb back up the leaderboard<\/a>, a scantily-clad man stormed onto the fairway with a golf club in hand.<\/p>\n

He then dropped a couple of balls, had not one but two hits, and flaunted some dance moves, until finally some security guards began to chase him.<\/p>\n

The man bounced an invisible basketball, showing off his handles to one security guard before sprinting away.<\/p>\n

But the streaker's escape was thwarted by another guard on a golf cart, who jumped off the vehicle and hooked him before pinning him to the ground as other guards piled on top.<\/p>\n

While the moment was not shown on the official live broadcast of the US Open, footage of the streaker leaked online much to the delight of golf pundits.<\/p>\n

"The best streaker golf has really ever seen. Clubs in hand, hit a few shots!" Golf.com writer Sean Zak tweeted.<\/p>\n

"Arguably the best swings under pressure today."<\/p>\n

Golf fans online didn't take long to work out who the barefoot streaker wearing a rainbow flag, boob tube, board shorts and flat cap was – YouTube and Instagram celebrity, Connor Murphy.<\/p>\n

With nearly half a million followers on Instagram and 2.4 million subscribers on YouTube, Murphy started out doing fitness videos but has made bizarre stunt videos more recently.<\/p>\n

Murphy's Instagram confirmed he was at the US Open.<\/p>\n

It also appeared he was sporting the same outfit seen on the 13th hole worn by the streaker, with Murphy's post suggesting he was doing another social media stunt.<\/p>\n
