Justin Thomas’ tee shot on the 17th hole of the Ryder Cup was in the rough and down a cliff from the green, and it was up to Jordan Spieth to get onto the green.

Spieth somehow was able to manage to hit a beautiful chip shot on the green and went off balance, and his momentum nearly carried him into Lake Michigan.
