Ryder Cup heckler pulled onto green to prove himself, sinks 12-foot putt
If you're cocky enough to heckle golf pros about their game, you'd better be able to walk the walk.
David Johnson of North Dakota, the world's cockiest golf fan, did just that on the eighth green of the 2016 Ryder Cup.
Johnson continuously heckled European pros Rory McIlroy and Henrik Stenson about a 12-foot putt they kept missing in practice. A playfully frustrated Stenson then challenged Johnson to sink the putt himself, pulling him onto the green.

Clad in some very questionable shoes and baggy dad jeans, Johnson put the pros to shame and actually did sink the putt, to a roar of applause from the crowd.
A different video shows the moment Stenson had had enough, bringing Johnson onto the green.
Let it be known -- heckling is 100% okay as long as you are better than those you're heckling.
