Charl Schwartzel goes from thrown club to hole-out eagle in back-to-back holes

Charl Schwartzel hit his tee shot 192 yards on the par-3 15th in Round 1 of the Valspar Championship. Unfortunately, the hole was playing at 215 yards.

How far Schwartzel flung his iron, however, was not captured by ShotLink.

Schwartzel came up well short of the green at No. 15, his sixth hole of the day at Innisbrook. The chucked club was part of an array of emotion on his opening nine.

The South African began his day with birdies at Nos. 11 and 12. He then made triple-bogey 6 at the par-3 13th.
