After the worst opening round of his PGA Tour career on Thursday at Riviera, Jordan Spieth nearly hit himself with a golf ball Friday morning on the driving range.

Courtesy Fox 11 in Los Angeles, via CBSSports.com, watch as Spieth's ball ricochet's off what appears to be a tee marker and flies straight backwards:

The shot was hardly indicative of how the rest of the day would go, as Spieth made eight birdies en route to a bounceback 68 ... but it's pretty funny anyway.
